1st section – Process in solving
the crime
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 4
Solving the crime
• Most difficult task – Interrogation– Must be very calculative– Asking the right questions in a tactful manner.
• Eg. When wanting to know why this person was at the crime scene, we cannot ask directly.
– Must be aware of context and personality• Eg. Cleaner and Peter Hamilton.

Solving the crime
– Must be aware of context and personality• Eg. Cleaner and Peter Hamilton.
– Great communications skill• Use the right tone.• Use the right language.
– Strong mind• Never falter because of a comment by suspect.• Stand by your train of thought.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 6
Solving the crime
• Easiest task – Evidence gathering– Straight forward – objective not subjective.– Simply requires good knowledge and steady
hands.• Eg. Knowing process of finger printing.
– Does not need to be aware of image or tone.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 7
Solving the crime
– Not much thinking involved, plain skills
and keen eye.• Spot the pattern exercises.
– No need for interaction.– “Carbon vs Silicon”
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 8
Solving the crime
• Success– Very efficient with experiments.– Obtaining relevant evidence.
• Eg By end of third day, able to discern most of
the evidence in the sketch.
– Leading questions• Eg. Peter’s baldness
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 9
Solving the crime
• Hiccoughs– Lack in collation and interpretation
• Eg. Assumption that there was more than one victim
– Messy discussions• Frequent bickering and disagreements• Seldom we reach conclusions
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 10
Solving the crime
• Media– At first we thought the papers would be
helpful.– However we discovered red herrings later.
• Eg. Name of the school, unreliable data
interviewing of random stranger.
– Got us distracted and making wrong assumptions.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 11
Solving the crime
– Should have seen it coming.– Newspapers need money and revenue– Dirty chain -
Sensational news
Better sales and
advertisement deals
$$$
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 13
Evidence
• In every crime…– There is always evidence (Locard’s Principle)– Important factor to break the case
• Places things and people at the crime scene.• Help show what actually happened at the crime
scene.• Eg. Bullet hole through a person
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 14
Evidence
• But evidence can be hard to find– Blood stains invisible to naked eye.– Particles of substances– Tampered evidence (By nature or man)
• Also evidence may not always be
reliable.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 15
Evidence
– Eg. Fingerprinting• Locard’s Principle, many people might be in
contact.• May leave barely a trace.• Most whorls and other patterns might be hard to
catch.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 16
Evidence
• Another form of discerning identity would be lip printing.
• Patterns can be told from – – Number of grooves– Thickness of upper or lower lip.– Type of lipstick
• Can be used as a back - up
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 17
Evidence
• Such revelations show just how absurd and impossible CSI is.– Eg. How once they have a fingerprint they
have the criminal.– How lucky they seem to always get the right
evidence.• CSI is just but another show trying to get
views, we must be more skeptical.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 18
Evidence
• “Knowing does not amount to proving”– Proof means to have sufficient evidence and
argument to reach a statement on an issue.– Whereas knowing lacks the evidence part
only the opinion part comes into play.• Knowing in a crime is never enough, we
need evidence, we need to prove. We need proof.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 20
The Verdict
• In every case there is a motive.– In this case, I can conclude that Peter wanted
John dead because of debts concerning drugs.
– To kill John, Peter hired a mercenary, Jack Smith, to pull the trigger and do the deed.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 21
The VerdictEvidence What does this mean?
Member of party saw Peter and Jack having a serious discussion
Shows connection between the two
Coded message sent from Peter to John, threatening to hurt him if debt is not paid.
Shows strong evidence of motive
Blood was found from a source not in the list of suspects
Garners more suspicion towards Jack Smith
Fingerprint on cartridge is also from an unknown source
Further reinforces the theory that Jack was in the scene
A sample of drugs was found in the classroom
Show that the issue of debts was probably about drugs
Both John and Peter are drug dealers. This shows further evidence that the debt issue is over drugs
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 22
The Verdict
Convicts Crime committed Sentence
Everyone at the party 1. Consumption of drugs.
2. Drug trafficking.
1. Fines of up to $100, 000.
2. Imprisonment of up to 20 years.
3. 10 strokes of the cane
Organiser of party 1. Allowed party to carry on, knowing full well of drug involvement.
2. No different from a drug dealer
1. Fines of up to $150, 000
2. Imprisonment of up to 30 years.
3. 10 strokes of the cane
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 23
The Verdict
• Everyone at the party– While this is not the focus, justice must be
served.– While some did not consume, none informed
the authorities even with the knowledge.– Severity depends on amount consumed.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 24
The Verdict
• Organiser of party– He is as good as a drug trafficker himself.– Allowing such a great breach of law to take
place knowingly.– He should be given a heavier sentence.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 25
The Verdict
Convicts Crime committed Sentence
Peter Hamilton 1. 1st degree murder2. Evasion of police
(interrogation)3. Drug trafficking
Life imprisonement
Jack Smith 1. 1st degree murder Life imprisonment
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 26
The Verdict
• Peter Hamilton– While he never pulled the trigger, he had staged and
planned for the murder.– This amounts to 1st degree murder.– Also he has been proven to be a drug trafficker.– Also he had evaded the 2nd interrogation.– This amounts to serious sentences seeing he is too a
repeat offender.– Still there can be no capital punishment.
Powerpoint TemplatesPage 27
The Verdict
• Jack Smith– While he never planned for the murder and just
murdered (2nd degree murder)– He was involved in the plans which amounts to 1st
degree murder.– Seeing that he so readily accepted the offer, shows
that he must be a mercenary that must have killed many more.
– Likewise he should have a heavy sentence and no capital punishment.

We as a group, feel that we have learnt the most from the interrogation sessions. It is then that everything new we learnt in the camp could be applied. Things like learning how to think, how to be tactful, how to phrase questions, how to get answers, we learnt from there. It was through the sessions that actually showed us the importance of Mr. Toppin’s lectures, showed us how to be real humans with emotion and creativity and not just a machine, chasing for hard facts. The interrogation session offered such a great platform as in order to crack the case, everyone would want a go at the mike, everyone would be forced to apply such soft skills, that is the real beauty of it. It is during the interrogation sessions that we see the whole camp liven up, everyone interacting, engaging and fencing with the “suspects” through words, instead of just running around labs, performing experiments. We had also really learnt how a real team, a real forensic squad must function, suggest, discuss and initiate. Thank you, Mr. Toppin for such a wonderful and delightful experience.
