1. Observe and record physical characteristics of fabric samples. 2. Apply knowledge of fabric characteristics to a forensic science problem. 3. Communicate your findings to a lay audience, as though in a court of law.

Weave patterns can help identify a fabric associated with a crime scene. In this lab, you are investigating an assault, in which the victim tore off a piece of his attacker’s shirt. Five suspects have been taken in for questioning, and a judge has issued a warrant to allow the forensics investigators to look for

1. Compare textiles based on their physical characteristics. 2. Identify the weave patterns of textile samples. 3. Apply comparative data to solve a forensic science problem scenario.

You have been called to court to appear as an expert witness in textiles. You are to report your findings to the jury. Assume the jurors know nothing about textiles. Therefore, you need to define any terms that are not part of normal, everyday conversation. In your discussion, be sure to include the following information.

After examining the textile samples from Suspects 1, 2, and 3 and the Crime Scene, were you able to determine if any of the fabric found at the crime scene matches the fabric found on the suspect? If so, which suspect had a fiber on them that matched the crime scene?

Some very simple tests can be used to determine the type of fibers found at a crime scene. Unfortunately, they are destructive to some of the fibers and consume the evidence. If only a limited number of fibers are recovered from a crime scene, then these tests may not be possible to perform.

Handle an open flame source with great care. Fibers will ignite suddenly and burn quickly at a very high temperature. Use something that will not conduct heat (forceps are metal and should not be used to hold onto something that is burning) to hold samples in the flame. Wear protective  goggles when flame-testing fabrics. Inhaling

1. Which car fibers were matched with those found on the victim? 2. Why were fibers from the victim’s car examined? 3. In your analysis, what characteristics make it difficult to distinguish cotton from rayon?
