Computer Technology and Forensics in Crime Scenes?
I have to do a presentation on how computers have been helpful in forensics. I have no idea other than using biometric technologies on fingerprinting. can anyone think of other things where people in crime scenes work with computer technology?

Computers can help police decide how the victim died and technology can take blood samples for analysis. Satelites also help find the escape route.

Virtually every machine used in a lab today is computer-controlled. Just pick devices and list how computers are used. (DNA sequencing, chromatography of various types, X-ray machines, odor “sniffers” … on and on.)
