Patterned Bloodstains

Patterned bloodstains are specific arrangements or shapes of blood that can reveal how an injury or event occurred. For example, a bloodstain pattern might show the direction of blood flow, the force of impact, or the position of a person or weapon during a stabbing or beating. Forensic experts analyze these patterns to determine details like the type of injury, movement, or sequence of events at a crime scene. Recognizing these patterns helps investigators understand the circumstances surrounding a bloodshed incident accurately.
