5 Evidence Handling It is crucial that bloodstains found at a crime scene are documented, collected, tested, preserved, and analyzed correctly. Failure to do so will weaken or destroy potential evidence.

6 Evidence Handling Proper evidence packaging is crucial to protect against: Loss Contamination Deterioration Cross-transfer Suspect / scene / item / victim Biohazards

7 Evidence Labeling Labeling Evidence description
Source (location, agency) Chain of custody Case and item numbers Health hazards Storage conditions (room temp, frozen, refrigerated)

8 Evidence Labeling Biological material must be dried before packaging to prevent deterioration. Dry at room temperature, do not use a heat gun, fan, or hair dryer. Use paper containers for biological evidence. Seal evidence with tape across the bag, initial and date over or under seal.

9 Evidence Packaging Work on clean surfaces. Wear gloves, a mask, and eye protection – don’t contaminate with DNA. Change gloves after handling each sample to eliminate cross-contamination. Do not blow on samples to make them dry faster. Do not touch blood samples with any non-disposable items. Clean tools with 10% bleach solution and dry thoroughly.

10 Evidence Packaging Keep all stains separated.
Separate stains on the same garment with sheets of paper. Package multiple garments in different bags. Do not use any packaging that limits air exposure (tubes, parafilm, plastic baggies)

11 Evidence Storage Biological evidence should be stored dry to prevent bacteria or mold growth. Wet evidence should be stored frozen. Some portion of samples should be preserved from destructive testing.
