I noticed a severe lack in regards to the field of Forensics. I'm here to change that, I have an obsession in the field and almost finished my degree with Forensics. I would love anyone's input whether you are a student, professor, someone who is interested or really anyone else.
I'm still in process of making this subreddit so I'm flexible with what it will cover, please give me any ideas and if you are interested in working on the subreddit.
Welcome! If you're here then you have some kind of interest in Forensic Science, please feel free to submit a link, ask a question, or discuss a topic. /r/scienceofcrime is still in the works, if you have any suggestions please leave a post, don't be shy!

Is there anybody that is a forensic science technician that can say something about their experience?
If you are a forensic scientist or a lawyer please contact me. I would like to ask you a few interview question about your career for my class project.
What does it get right about this? How much is possible or possible in the near future? How much is pure science fiction? How much is pure science fiction that will always be fiction, not one iota of a possibility?
It's one of my favorite video game series and Origins and Knight (the latter of which I've only played bits and pieces at a friend's house) particularly seemed to delve more into the detective aspects of Batman.
Obviously, these are video games and stretch things. But, the science these games emulate is interesting to me and the games would be all that more interesting if they stuck closer to the truth than I originally thought.
I'm a Secondary Chemistry (general science) Teacher in the UK, I have a degree in analytical and forensic chemistry, so I have tried to use this in the class room and every lesson I try to base around a case study and how you can use the info and everything else (eg. prac skills) to solve a problem, normally forensic related. The only real case I can find any info about is the Litvinenko. I was wondering if you knew of any others and how/what equipment you would use in tracking radiation spread and how they worked etc?
