Comparative evaluation of adhesive tapes and stamps for touch DNA collection from textile substrates

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract A substantial proportion of forensic evidence consists of skin or contact traces, commonly referred to as touch DNA. The collection of such biological material remains challenging due to its invisibility and low abundance. Further, depending on substrate type and surface properties, different recovery methods are employed, with adhesive tapes ...

Fatal pediatric neck entrapment in a lift‐up storage bed: A preventable domestic asphyxial death

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Bed‐related deaths are rare in forensic practice and are usually associated with falls, restraint‐related entrapment, or unsafe infant sleeping environments. Fatal mechanical asphyxia involving lift‐up storage beds is an exceptional occurrence, and the few published cases involve adult victims.

Exploring feature variability in digitally captured signatures—Part I: Variability in genuine signatures and the effects of collection sessions and writing position

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Digitally captured signatures (DCSs) pose new challenges for forensic handwriting examination compared with paper‐based signatures. While DCSs provide spatial coordinates, time and force values for forensic examination, the variability of the features derived from these data remains insufficiently understood.

Exploring feature variability in digitally captured signatures—Part II: Discrimination between genuine and simulated signatures and the effects of collection sessions and writing position

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the discrimination between genuine and simulated digitally captured signatures (DCSs) to support their forensic examination. The dataset included genuine questioned signatures from 65 writers, collected across multiple sessions and in three writing positions, together with reference signatures collected in the standard ...

Proposition for the analysis of background toner distribution to sequence ink lines and printing with a statistical method

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Determining the sequence of handwriting and laser‐printed text on documents that do not intersect is a recurring challenge in forensic document examination. This study proposes using background toner particle distribution analysis combined with kernel density estimation and likelihood ratio calculation to evaluate printing–writing sequence ...
