Download or read book Forensic Entomology written by Jason H. Byrd and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insects and other arthropods found at a death scene can provide corroborating evidence regarding both the time and place of death as well as possible antimortem and postmortem treatment of the victim. Nevertheless, most forensic investigators are not specially trained in entomology, and until now, no entomology reference has fully explored these subjects. Forensic Entomology: The Utility of Arthropods in Legal Investigations usurps this void, instructing even individuals without a background in entomology on what to search for when recovering entomological evidence at a crime scene.
