\n\t\tKINGSTON, R.I. \u2013 February 4, 2010 – \u201cHair, Fibers & Paint Analysis\u201d will be the topic of discussion Friday, Feb. 12 at the 溏心vlog免费B站\u2019s Forensic Science Seminar Series. <\/p>\n


\nAmy Duhaime, a criminalist at the Rhode Island State Crime Laboratory at 溏心vlog免费B站, will speak from 3:30 to 5 p.m. in Room 124 Pastore Hall, 51 Lower College Road. The lecture is free and open to the public. <\/p>\n


\nDuhaime has been a member of the state crime laboratory since 1996 and later in 2004, became the safety officer, quality manager, and supervisor of trace evidence. Responsible for physical and chemical analyses on hairs, fibers, and debris, Duhaime will provide an overview of trace evidence analysis. <\/p>\n


\nThe process starts with collecting various types of evidence, such as clothing impressions on the bumper of a car, from the scene by a specialized team of police investigators. <\/p>\n


\n\u201cOccasionally the crime lab team is called to the scene especially for shootings or hit-and-run accidents, but mostly we rely on the police for the reports and photos of the scenes,\u201d says Duhaime. \u201cIt\u2019s important to stay in contact with the investigators to get a full report on what\u2019s going on and what specifically they are looking for.\u201d<\/p>\n


\nThe seminar will touch upon key aspects of the analysis process, including types of equipment used as well as examples from various cases, which show the way evidence can be analyzed. Paint found on a pedestrian caused by friction and impact or small fibers compared to the samples from the suspect help to get the full story and can ultimately solve a case. <\/p>\n


\nDuhaime is an experienced trace evidence analyst and has received extensive training through the FBI, Connecticut State Police Forensic Laboratory, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives as well as numerous other organizations. She is also a member of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences, Rhode Island Criminalist Associates, and New England Trace Evidence Examiners. Duhaime holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in medical technology from Indiana University and a master\u2019s degree in forensic sciences from George Washington University. <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
