My project made me realize that by showing others my interests i can develop an even deeper understanding on said interest. Forensics an true crime is something many people don't have a lot of knowledge about because i will admit, its something, thats hard to understand. So being able to help people better understand my interests i can give everyone new knowledge they'd never thought they'd get around to knowing. Its also new information they can teach others.

My  evaluation  of  my  product  is  very thorough.  My research  and  my  organisation was great and extensive,  I  gave a very detailed and easy to understand rundown of the case. I presented it in a way that would keep their viewers interest peaked, while also adding visuals and fun facts. Thus, I was able to create a very informative and knowledgeable presentation. I  can  say  that that project has given me an even better understanding of my interests while also giving people outside of me. I love helping people and giving them better understandings of things they never thought they'd have the knowledge of.

“I heard she died from the shock her injuries were received before she passed. Which is kinda the most haunting part of it all” -anon reddit user

“There's random wounds all over. The side of her breast, the nipple, above her knee. My own guess would be the possibility of cannibalism and trying different textures of the body. She was obviously split cleanly and harvested for organs I believe. I'm pretty sure some insides were unaccounted for. But again, nobody knows and I'm could be way off.” -anon reddit user

“The condition of her body was horrible. Her organs were removed folded up and stuffed back in her body she was cut in half and she was drained of all her blood she also had a cut on her face from ear to ear giving her
a ghastly joker smile” -anon reddit user

“What about the recordings of George saying
"supposing I did kill the black dahlia? They can't do anything about it because my secretary is dead" or something of that nature. That is concrete. And his secretary died under unusual circumstances. He's guilty as sin. He was the LAPD's number 1 suspect but they could never convict him because half the department was on his payroll I'm sure” -anon reddit user

Research and Creative thinking because i’m very sure very little people went down the true crime route for their project and it took so much research to find the proper and correct info regarding the case.

When considering the success criteria for my case dissection , I started by reviewing the purpose of my product. I wanted to show that I could showcase my knowledge regarding true crime and forensics. I then had to make some decisions about the parameters for this. To help me, I did some initial research on true crime and forensics. When researching, I would see what the details of the case were, who worked on it and what their input on the case was, ensuring that the information i put out is reliable information. When setting the goals for myself, I ensured to make them realistic but a bit tricky. using things such as resources as things to assess my product on.

My wanted outcome is that my learning goal will lead to me gaining some new skills and

being able to inform people about topics surrounding true crime and forensics, therefore my product will be an information set based on one of my favorite cases.  When considering the topic for my set, I considered a few options but settled on the black dahlia. I have always been captivated by the case because its so freaky and mind boggling and would love to showcase the case to people, I decided early on that my set wouldn't be too detailed and gruesome to avoid scaring people away, but i would try and provide as much info as i can w/o scaring people away.

After the discovery of her body, the LA police department  (LAPD) began an extensive investigation that produced over 150 suspects but yielded no arrests. Short's unsolved murder and the details surrounding it have had a lasting cultural intrigue, generating various theories and public speculation. On the morning of January 15, 1947, Short's naked

body was found severed into two pieces on a vacant lot on the west side of South Norton Avenue, midway between Coliseum Street and West 39th Street (at 34.0164°N 118.333°W) in the neighborhood of Leimert Park. At the time, Leimert Park was largely undeveloped. Local resident Betty Bersinger discovered the body at approximately 10 a.m. while walking with

her three-year-old daughter, initially thinking she had found a discarded store mannequin. When she realized it was a corpse, she rushed to a nearby house and telephoned the police.

Short's severely mutilated body was completely severed at the waist and drained of blood, leaving her skin a pallid white. Medical examiners determined that she had been dead for around ten hours prior to the

discovery, leaving her time of death either sometime during the evening of January 14 or the early morning hours of January 15. The body had apparently been washed by the killer. Short's face had been slashed

from the corners of her mouth to her ears, creating an effect known as the "Glasgow smile". She had several cuts on her thigh and breasts, where entire portions of flesh had been sliced away. The lower half of her body was positioned a foot away from the upper, and her intestines had been tucked neatly beneath her buttocks. The corpse had been "posed", with her hands over her head, her elbows bent at right angles, and her

legs spread apart. Upon the discovery, a crowd of passersby and reporters began to gather; Los Angeles Herald-Express

reporter Aggie Underwood was among the first to arrive at the scene, and took several photos of the corpse and crime scene. Near the body, detectives located a heel print on the ground amid the tire tracks, and a cemer

sack containing watery blood was also found nearby.

Elizabeth Short (July 29, 1924 - c. January 15, 1947), known posthumously as the Black Dahlia, was an American woman found murdered in the Leimert Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, on or before January 15, 1947. Her case became highly publicized due to the gruesome nature of the crime,

which included her corpse having been mutilated and bisected at the waist. A native of Boston, Short spent her early life in New England and Florida before relocating to California, where her father lived. It is commonly held that Short was an aspiring actress, though she had no known acting credits or jobs during her time in Los Angeles. She would acquire the nickname of the Black Dahlia posthumously, as newspapers of the period often nicknamed particularly

lurid crimes; the term may have originated from a film noir murder mystery, The Blue Dahlia, released in 1946.
