blood pattern recognition

Blood pattern recognition is a forensic technique used to analyze the shape, distribution, and location of bloodstains at a crime scene. By studying these patterns, investigators can determine how a crime might have occurred, including the position of victims and perpetrators, the number of blows, and whether the blood was spattered during an attack or pooled after. This analysis helps reconstruct events and provides valuable evidence in criminal investigations, aiding in understanding the dynamics of violent incidents.
