ST- Forensics: Myth & Reality

Interest in forensics has exploded thanks to programs like CSI as well as Fox's Bones, A&E's Cold Case Files, and Court TV's Forensic Files. But TV shows do not accurately portray the way forensic science is used to solve crimes. In Hollywood portrayals science is most often a gimmick--a technological toy that the hero uses to find evidence the criminal surely hoped was undetectable. In this class, we will critique the methods used in various episodes of these shows and compare them to the actual science of forensics.
