It is essential that the scene is systematically searched, documented, and all evidence is properly collected. In this activity you will play the role of crime scene investigators to examine the scene for clues.

Anna’s best friend and co-owner of a local bakery.

Business has been doing very well lately, but Anna and Lucy have been arguing over whether or not to expand the business and create a sugar-free line of products. Lucy really wants to expand, but Anna refuses.

Last saw Anna at work yesterday. Anna left work a little early because she said she had something to take care of.

Lucy has been debating whether or not to buy Anna out of her half of the business. The conflict with their business arrangement has caused a lot of strife in their friendship.

Lucy mentioned that Anna had been in the hospital recently, but assumed that she was feeling better as Anna told her that she was no longer taking the antibiotics prescribed to her. Anna did however note that she had been experiencing back pain radiating towards her sides.

It was a hot, 92°F summer morning. The emergency call came in at 9:45 am. A man contacted the police to report that he was worried about his next-door neighbor, a woman named Anna Garcia. He informed the police that he had spoken to Anna the previous morning when he saw her walking her dog around 6:30 am. He noted that she was wearing a sweater even though they were currently experiencing a heat wave. He decided to call the police this morning because Anna’s dog had been barking excitedly for the last two hours (which is extremely unusual in this normally quiet suburban neighborhood). He tried to call Anna on the telephone, but no one answered. Next he tried ringing her doorbell, but there was no answer. The 911 operator notified the local police and the emergency medical technicians (EMT). Both the police and the EMT arrived at the scene at 9:56 am. The front door had to be broken down. Upon entering the house, they found Anna lying face down in the entry hallway. It was a comfortable 73˚F inside the house. The EMT determined that Anna was dead. The police immediately notified your team of crime scene investigators as well as the medical examiner, both of whom were dispatched to the house. Has a crime been committed? The mystery begins! It is your job to put together as many pieces of information as you can find. (Don’t worry – the dog was taken to the home of close family friends and is doing just fine.)
