Using 3DF Zephyr to determine body‐worn camera position

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Photogrammetry has been used consistently in forensic settings to document crime scenes three‐dimensionally. Traditionally, a large number of still photos are taken, and information from those photos is used to create a three‐dimensional (3D) model.

A quantitative method to assess DNA extraction efficiency

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Obtaining an accepted minimum amount of extracted and purified DNA is critical for generating complete forensic short tandem repeat (STR) profiles. Certain sample types encountered in forensic laboratories may pose challenges in obtaining the desired target amount of extracted DNA, which can be compounded when an extraction yields low recovery,

DNA methylation and epigenomic profiling post‐mortem of human remain analogs (Sus scrofa) in southern Ontario, Canada

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding the dynamics of DNA methylation (DNAm) post‐mortem could support forensic applications, particularly the estimation of the post‐mortem interval (PMI), age, and sex of remains. In this study, we investigated DNAm changes in pig carcasses (Sus scrofa) as analogs for human decomposition, while measuring the progression of decay ...

Neuropathologic findings and age‐related differences in Finnish pediatric medico‐legal autopsies

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuropathological examination plays a critical role in medico‐legal cause‐of‐death investigation, especially in determining the cause and manner of death in pediatric autopsies. Although a comprehensive neuropathological examination is recommended, limited data exists of the diagnostic yield of neuropathology consultations in such cases.

Assessing the reliability of saw mark features: A comparative study using stereomicroscopy, micro‐XCT, and 3D printing

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Saw mark analysis is an important component of forensic anthropology, particularly in cases of postmortem dismemberment. While stereomicroscopy remains the benchmark for evaluating kerf features, recent advances in imaging technologies offer new opportunities for documenting and interpreting bone trauma.

Psychopathological profiles of inmates convicted for femicide, other familial homicides, or attempted homicides

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Femicides and family‐related homicides represent a significant concern, with over 50% of homicides occurring within the family setting. This study aimed to explore the complex factors, including psychological aspects, behind such crimes, focusing on a sample of inmates incarcerated for homicide, attempted homicide, or femicide.

LLM‐based keyword augmentation for title‐driven evidence selection: A practical approach

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Keyword‐based search is widely used in digital forensic investigations, yet its effectiveness depends strongly on investigator experience, leading to inconsistent results and missed evidence. While previous studies have explored machine learning and large language models (LLMs) to address this, practical deployment is often constrained by ...
