The evidence discovered at underwater crime scenes must be handled
with the same attention to proper chain of custody procedures as
with any other type of investigation. Improper handling of these
scenes can lead to evidence being lost, unrecognizable, destroyed,
contaminated, or rendered inadmissible at the time of trial.
Updated and expanded, Underwater Forensic Investigation, Second
Edition presents a comprehensive approach to the processing of an
underwater crime scene and the steps necessary to conduct the
operation. The book summarizes the history, physics, and laws
applicable to underwater investigations and includes topics such as
team formation, roles, deployment, and accountability. Explaining
procedures that can make a true difference in the final outcome of
water-related incidents, the author also debunks myths associated
with submerged evidence. This second edition contains several new
chapters on photography, contaminated sites, preservation of
evidence, and release of the crime scene, and includes expanded
information on death investigation and organizing the dive team.
Nearly 100 color illustrations supplement the text. The science of
water-related investigations is still in its infancy, and hence,
the field needs accurate and useful sources of education. This text
will assist law enforcement professionals and those in other areas
of public safety in gaining the knowledge that has historically
been lacking. The incorporation of the procedures presented will
enable those tasked with working these scenes to develop a greater
degree of professionalism, objectivity, thoroughness, and accuracy
relating to the investigation of water-related incidents-increasing
the chance for successful resolution of these difficult cases.
