The Mammoth Book of New CSI: Forensic science in over thirty real-life crime scene investigations
Nigel Cawthorne
Mammoth Books, True crime, Prose: non-fiction
A bumper collection of 30 of the most shocking recent cases that have been solved by or investigated with forensic science.
Detailed accounts of over 30 contemporary cases, or older cases reopened as a result of advances in forensic science.
Crime scene investigations draw on a wide range of cutting-edge technology including genetic fingerprinting, blood splatter analysis, laser ablation, toxicology and ballistics analysis.
Cases covered here include: the abduction of Madeleine McCann; the vindication of Colin Stagg, convicted of having murdered Rachel Nickell; Hadden Clark who killed and ate a six-year-old child in Maryland; Robert Pickton, the Vancouver farmer who fed his female victims to his pigs; the murder of Meredith Kercher in Perugia (was Amanda Knox guilty?); Lindsay Hawker's gruesome death in Japan; Josef Fritzl and the cellar in which he imprisoned and raped his daughter.
