The next step is to analyse all the evidence, based on the timeframe of
their occurrence. Since you are going to get your data from several sources,

their timestamps may be different. By gathering your data based on their

a fact supporting your evidence. You need to be systematic about your
analysis. Make a hypothesis and run tests to support all your findings.

The next step is to generate a report on all the data that you have gathered
to reconstruct the scene of crime. This report must be detailed, under-

standable, factual and must include only defensible data. Make sure that

sure that your report does not contain too much technical linguistics. This

The final step of any investigation is to present a report of your findings
in the court of law. Your findings must be presented without any bias or

critical case, other certified forensic scientists can be called upon to verify
your findings.
