Here are more cards from the victims purse that have been removed from her handbag. This will all be taken into further investigation for fingerprints

# data[].attributes.body
Here we have more items that have been thrown out of the victims handbag, including her diary which has the date of this murder, she was due to go to the bank for financial services. This is a major factor for helping with the crime as if the victim made it to the bank she could have been followed home from there, leading to her being mugged in her own home

# data[].attributes.body
This is the victims hand bag that has seemed to have been tossed across the floor as the suspect has searched for the victims bank cards. This will be taken into further investigation as will have the suspects fingerprints on these items.

This is a blood trail that has started from the victims body. However this blood does not match the victims body. This must have been caused from the victim attacking her attacker causing them to bleed as they left the scene. This can now be used for further information when searching for a suspect as it can narrow down their blood type. This will also have the suspects DNA which has a major factor in finding the attacker that committed this crime

# data[].attributes.body
Here is a closer look at the blood that was taken from the victims body after the incident to her head. We have taken bloody samples from both blood and seem to have found the blood near the head matches the blood to the victim. However the blood on the victims hand was a different blood type, this could be a lead to finding the suspects blood type or further information.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the main crime scene. Here we have the victims body laying in blood. There is a trail of blood from the victims body leading towards the exit that the suspect took. There seems to have been a blow to the victims head which has caused major bruising. The victims belongings from her handbag have been thrown across the floor. The victims bank cards and cash have all gone missing, this was checked through her husband who has shared bank accounts with the victim.

# data[].attributes.body
The victim seems to have caught his or hers jumper on the latch of the door as they have entered or exited the house. This means that the suspects clothing can be identified to the fibres left on this piece of material. By this we can then figure out the colour, brand and what type of clothing this is. Leading to further information on finding the suspect

# data[].attributes.body
This is the back door that has been entered by the suspect to get into the house. It has been left open however there seems to have been new windows fitted in the house. However the patio doors are old and haven’t been changed which would make things a lot easier to break in. There is something left on the latch, let’s take a closer look

# data[].attributes.body
The padlock appears to be unlocked and old. This means that it would have been easy access for the suspect to enter the crime scene

# data[].attributes.body
This is the back gate that was entered through by the suspect. It was left open and appears to be very loose and old. There is no main evidence on this gate however we may be able to trace fingerprints off of the handle of the gate.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the outer view of where the incident took place. As you can see the victims car was left on the drive way and this was proven through documents left in the household were found to prove this. As you can see, to the right side of the house is the back gate where the suspect has entered through.

# data[].attributes.body
murder weapon, standard kitchen knife, 6-7 inches long. Covered in victims blood, no fingerprints visible signifying attacker most likely wore gloves, no gloves were found. Murder weapon not one of victims suggesting this was premeditated.

Forensics crime scene mock:

The close up image from the front door shows the missing piece of the door frame from where it was broken into. The object used would have been small and sharp to break the door open on its own. On the other close up image it shows again the missing piece of the door frame along with a scratch along the metal lock of the door. Meaning it took a few attempts to break in the door even with the object they had used. When taking these images the weather was sunny. The mid range shots show the distance from the front door to the side of the kitchen to where the keys were stolen. The ‘replacement’ keys sitting on the side of the kitchen show where they would have been sitting when they were broken into. Nothing has been knocked over or moved making it seem as they were only there for the car keys and left, not leaving anything behind. Also showing that there was no struggle to do with the victims. -Phoebe

# data[].attributes.body
In this image you can see that there is a knife and various important documents from the victims possession. When taking this image the weather was bright and sunny. From this point of view the scene is looking to have been a robbery gone wrong however there are no signs of struggle from the victim. The scene is overall very organised which indicates that there was no struggle from the victim, this means that the offender could have attacked the victim suddenly so that they did not have any time to respond to the oncoming assault.

Here there is 4 close-up photos of the evidence, the first picture shows a weapon most likely to be the murder weapon due to the blood down the knife, the knife being 33cm in length with a 20cm blade, and the place at which the knife has been placed (under the trailer, hidden). The second photo shows blood down the corner of a worktop this can suggest many conclusions about the crime, the perpetrator could have pushed the victim causing them to hit their head or other part of the body on the worktop and then stab the victim perhaps to make sure they were dead, another conclusion could be that the perpetrator surprised the victim stabbed them which caused them to fall onto the corner of the worktop at which they proceeded to drag the body out of the room into perhaps an escape vehicle. The third photo shows the blood drag marks across the floor. The fourth photo shows broken glass from a window where the perpetrator perhaps broke into the victims house, as seen in the picture there is blood on the glass this could be either the victims or the perpetrators, the blood seems the only cover a few shards suggesting that it is not from the dragging of the victim and perhaps blood from the hand of the perpetrator from when the window was smashed, however this can be tested through DNA tests between the blood on the glass and blood found in other areas. we can test the glass for any left over particles from a potential object used to break the glass or fabric particles that may have been left behind if the perpetrator used some kind of covering of the hand. Due to the perpetrator most likely using the gate as an entry and exit point the likely-hood of witnesses are high.- Maxine-Emily

# data[].attributes.body
In this photo you can see the victim has shown signs of struggle, alongside the murder weapon and the entry and/or exit point the suspect has used. This is an overview of the crime scene showing all the pieces of evidence collected. The nature of this crime can suggest a disturbed burglary, resulting in the victim being attacked and killed with a hammer.

# data[].attributes.body
In this image, you can see a chair in an unnatural position. This can show signs of a struggle. As if it has been pushed over, this can indicate very frantic behaviour. As if someone, maybe the victim, was trying to get away. Nearby is the possible murder weapon and bloody handprints.

# data[].attributes.body
Close by the entry/exit point is the possible murder weapon. A large hammer was found with blood at the handle and head. The weapon seems to have been very in the open next to where the victim was found. This can suggest the suspect fled the scene very quickly. The blood found at the face of the hammer can show that the victim suffered a significant blow to the head with a great force. The blood at the handle can show how the victim had bled a lot and how the suspect has grabbed the handle of the hammer whilst covered in a lot of this victims blood.

# data[].attributes.body
The footprints in the image appear to be in blood. These were found by the open door, which is believed to have been the suspects exit point as their trace leads straight out the door.

# data[].attributes.body
The handprints shown in the image, were found just underneath the hammer. They seem to belong to the victim who appeared to show a struggle due to the smearing of the left handprint.

# data[].attributes.body
The blood found on the glass of the door can suggest a splattered blood pattern from the force of the hammer to the victim.

# data[].attributes.body
In a rush to vacate the property, this bloody handprint can suggest that the suspect has frantically tried to make an exit - grabbing the door frame whilst doing so.

# data[].attributes.body
This can show the suspect has grabbed the handle leaving behind a bloody handprint, in order to quickly leave the property.

# data[].attributes.body
In this photo you can see broken glass by the exit/entry point/ broken door window, Blood on the corner of a worktop and a blood mark across the floor which portrays how to victim was perhaps dragged across the floor, The blood trail stops at the door, however a weapon, a knife covered in blood, was found outside attempted to be hidden under a trailer. The broken glass and window suggests a break in however the bloodstains and bloody knife suggest foul play and even murder by the amount of blood, A body is nowhere to be found. - Maxine-Emily

# data[].attributes.body
This could be the point in which the attacker had made there entrance into the house, possibly moments before releasing a copious amount of knife blows onto the unsuspecting victim.

This may also be the point at which the attacker had made there getaway and fleeted from the scene, promptly disposing of any evidence on them that hinted to them being the culprit.

# data[].attributes.body
The entire crime scene is shown in the photo, presenting the area of the struggle and all the pieces of evidence that will need to be examined in a lab.

# data[].attributes.body
The photo shows the victims body. The victim was identified as a male and had multiple stab wounds covering his back. The victim was facing down when discovered, which would mean that the victim was facing away from the attacker when they hit the fatal blow that killed the victim.

# data[].attributes.body
This photo is of a bloody knife used by the attacker. The state the knife is in would indicate that there was a brutal struggle between the victim and the attacker, unfortunatley ending in the attackers favour.

# data[].attributes.body
The photo shows what is presumed to be the victims keys. This could imply that they may have tried to escape through the front door and lock the attacker inside the house, whilst trying to get to safety and calling the police.

# data[].attributes.body
The photo presents a firearm, most likely owned by the victim. The firearm was probably used as a means of defense for the victim, however did not help during the attack. This also presents the idea that the victim had time to retrieve the firearm and that the struggle went on for a little while.

# data[].attributes.body
The photo shows a handprint on a table. This implies that whilst attempting to escape the attacker, the victim may have stumbled and left a handprint on the side, before briskly collapsing to the floor.

# data[].attributes.body
These are close up pictures of 4 pieces of evidence,the knife is most likely to be the murder weapon.The knife is 24cm long with a 12cm blade the blood on it should belong to the victim .The knocked over chair could of been knocked over by anyone so it should have fibers from the victim,suspect or both helping us to identify anyone involved.The footprints could help determine the suspects shoe size which is estimated to be around size 7.

# data[].attributes.body
There are 4 mid-range photos.The first one is of the blood on the broken fence, this could be either the victims or the perpetrators blood ,so it will be further analysed in a lab to determine whos it is.The broken fence and knocked over chair shows signs of struggle, meaning all the blood on scene is not necessarily the victims; the blood on the chair could be the suspects.This chair could of been were the victim was sitting when stabbed and may of been used as an object to defend themselves against the attacker.
-Becca

# data[].attributes.body
In this overview of the crime scene you can see 4 pieces of evidence:a bloody knife,fallen over chair with some blood on it,bloody footprints and blood on the broken fence.It was sunny and windy so some of the evidence may of been moved or even destroyed.The victims body has not yet been found but it is presumed that by the amount of blood on the scene, they are very badly hurt or possibly dead.
-Becca

# data[].attributes.body
Found in the backpack of the victim was a notebook, that could maintain evidence of why they were killed, or how the suspect was given a motive.

# data[].attributes.body
The set of double doors may have been used as a way to escape the scene, due to the doors having many finger prints on, so it is hard to get a distinct answer to who the suspect may be, it may also have been an entry point, due to the corridor behind it being long and full of classrooms.

# data[].attributes.body
Here there are 4 mid-range photos, the first one depicts the blood smudges that travel across the room and lead out the door, this evidence shows how the victim was stabbed or hit with a weapon that caused mass bleeding and then the body was dragged out of the room and out the gate, the gate being the most likely entry/ exit point, meaning that there could be witnesses that saw the body being taken. The second photo shows a scape of the area around the possible murder weapon, including the gate. The weapon was found under a trailer by the gate as seen to be an attempt to try and hide the weapon. The last two photos showing the main entry point with the broken glass/ window showing how the door was forcibly opened. It can be seen from the glass on the floor that the perpetrator used their hands to smash the glass due to the blood on several shards of the glass. -Maxine-Emily

# data[].attributes.body
There are two doors leading away from the scene of the crime, and could be used as a way to escape or hide things, such as a weapon from the scene.

# data[].attributes.body
Behind the warning signs, are fire extinguishers, of which may have been used as a murder weapon, this may be the case, as the large fire extinguisher has a dent along the bottom of the canister, The wet floor signs may be used as a cover up for the event that took place.

# data[].attributes.body
In the corner of the scene, is a security camera, of which may provide evidence about the victims death and what the cause may be, and there is a door leading to an office, of which may have been used as a place to hide evidence.

# data[].attributes.body
When arriving at the scene, and overview was taken, to give an example of what is yet to come around the scene. This overview documents a murder, around a corridor of a building. The victim is a male, around six feet in height, and in his mid-teens, around the victim are warning signs about a wet floor, of which could create an insight of an accidental death.

# data[].attributes.body
this is the point of exit. there is clearly blood on the door handle meaning that the victim tried to escape from the attacker or the attacker want to make a quick get away from the crime scene.

# data[].attributes.body
this is where the attacker entered the crime scene the door was open slightly and the door looked to be opened with force. how it was open is still unclear as we have not found any other weapons at the crime scene.

# data[].attributes.body
this close up shows that the knife is a very sharp and dangerous it clearly has blood all over it suggesting that the knife was used to kill or deal significant damage to who ever.

# data[].attributes.body
in this photo we can see that a person threw the bin on the floor to stop who ever was attacking them.

# data[].attributes.body
in this mid range picture you can see the that the knife is a metre away from the chair which could mean that the person was sitting down when stabbed. also the documents are a metre away from the chair which could mean the victim was holding on to them when they where attacked

# data[].attributes.body
In the left corner of the room, there is a fire extinguisher with the pipe half detached. This could show that the Suspect used it as a weapon and swiftly put it back.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the ID badge that the victim had in possession. The badge shows he is a student of the Colchester institute college.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a overview of the crime scene. In this photo you can see some moved around documents and a knife. this tells me that someone was stabbed or murder and it could because of bad business or a robbery.

# data[].attributes.body
Around the room of the victim there are three Wet floor warning signs which could be a important factor on the victims death

# data[].attributes.body
There are two main entrances to the crime scene, one set of doors leading to the corridor where there are classrooms either side and a potential exit point at the other end. And the other set of doors is on the left side of the room that leads to a flight of stairs

# data[].attributes.body
At the scene of the crime, three chairs were found, and seem to be in a region of struggle, as two of them are knocked over, thus there may have been panic, leading to people fleeing the scene and the chairs being knocked over, three metres infant of these chairs, there is a balisong, in a divot of the grass, of which could have been a murder weapon.

# data[].attributes.body
Next to the backdoor of the house, is a security camera, of which may have evidence of the victim and the suspect around the time of the crime.

# data[].attributes.body
Infront of the chairs, a four inch balisong was found covered in blood, creating another possible murder weapon, and this was found four metres away from the back door to the scene of the crime. It was put into a lower part of the grass, as if the suspect has tried to use their foot to lower the weapon into the ground t hide it.

# data[].attributes.body
The Victims body is lying face down in the centre of the room. There is no signs of external bodily harm. Apart from some blood on his nose which is likely to be from a fall.

# data[].attributes.body
The back door was found with many signs of struggle, and had marks of blood around the scratches created. This may be used as an escape route, but may have been used in a panic due Toal of the marks created trying to open it, and the blood around the door could be from the killer trying to get away as quickly as they can.

# data[].attributes.body
The front door to the house was found open with slight damage to the paint on the door, showing that it was opened by force, however it is not clear of what was used to open the door leading to the crime.

# data[].attributes.body
The gun found is an AAC Honey Badger PDW, with a suppressor attached to the barrel. Located  one metre away from this possible murder weapon is a thirty round STANAG magazine, that was found empty, but holds bullets that are .300AAC Blackout. Both of these items were located behind a bush just seven metres away from the scene of the crime.

# data[].attributes.body
An overview of the scene was taken, showing a possible murder weapon, and an area of struggle for the victim, and this may insight onto what happened to the victim. The positioning of the evidence can endure an assumption that the victim was with other people at the time, and the positioning of the gun could entail that there was someone hiding before the incident.

# data[].attributes.body
These are close up photos of each piece of evidence.
- The first photo is of the victim, from the photo, we can tell that the victim was attack from the front and that the bullet didn't go all the way through
- The second photo is of a blood trail, which informs us that the victim crawled away from the culprit
- The next photo is of the gun (the murder weapon) which was only fired once
- The last photo is of the bullet chasing, and the ruler next to it tells us the length of the bullet chasing which can be used to tell what type of bullet was used

# data[].attributes.body
In these photos, you can see the distances between each piece of evidence.
- This first piece of evidence shows the gun (the murder weapon) is quite close to the sofa which might suggest that the culprit  was either standing very close to the sofa or sitting down when the fatal shot was fired.
- The next photo of evidence shows a bullet chasing quite a distance away from the gun which could suggest that the gun could have been thrown in the panic.
- The last photo shows a trail of blood leading to the body of the victim. This suggests that the victim crawled away from the culprit quite a distance.

# data[].attributes.body
In the photo you can see there is a knife, a knocked over chair and unlocked gate. This is showing signs either of a burglary gone wrong, or an aggravated assault - the knife is bloody indicating that someone must've stabbed or injured prior to the attack. It has taken place in the garden - rear end of the house. The knocked over chair suggests that their could've been a struggle. The unlocked gate shows signs of a exit or an entry.

In this photo, I have taken overview photos of all the evidence from multiple angles to show the whole area of the crime scene. The way the evidence is positioned helps in the assumption of what had happened to the victim, which at this point is assumed that the victim has been shot point blank and has tried to crawl away.

# data[].attributes.body
The chefs knife (blade 20cm, overall 32.7cm) has smears of blood on the blade which indicates that the offender has tried to wipe the blood off the knife in a hurry. The offender has most likely done this as the realisation of his actions has sunk in so in the moment has quickly wiped over it once (if they wiped it more than once there would be no smear as all the blood would’ve transferred) and dumped the knife under a shrub.

# data[].attributes.body
On the first piece of evidence, there is smashed glass from an ornament that was placed on the window sill on the rear of the house. As the offender has climbed through the window they have knocked the ornament over to its side where it has smashed leading to believe that this was the place of entry.
The hole in the door is situated on the inside of the kitchen door suggesting that there was a violent altercation between two people.
On the second piece of evidence, a chefs knife is hidden under the garden shrub as the offender has tried to discard of the weapon quickly as they have fled the scene in a rush.
The third piece of evidence is showing a knife set missing a knife, indicating that this is the place where the weapon has come from. So whoever had used this knife, it must’ve been an unintentional attack where they have grabbed the nearest thing to them.
Fourth piece of evidence shows blood splatter down the kitchen cupboard. As the blood splatter is going in the direction of the floor it indicates that the offender has slashed the victim instead of stabbing.
Under a plant in the garden is where a tea towel from the kitchen has been found covered in blood. The blood pattern on the towel suggests that it has been used to clean up the scene or has been used to wipe the blood off of the weapon.
The last piece of evidence was also found in the garden. A bag of white powder was found laying on the grass suggesting that it has fallen out of a pocket/bag. This indicates that this incident could have been a drug deal gone wrong.

# data[].attributes.body
In this photo you can see a knife poking out from the shrub, a tea towel under a plant and a bag of white powder laying on the grass. Under the slope of the roof is where the open window is which shows signs of entry and/or exit. The pieces of evidence are shown in a trail suggesting that this is where the person fled the scene in distress and tried to get rid of the evidence quickly.

The 7 inch cleavers knife (17.78cm) shows that someone with enough force to stab so.eone must've been thinking about this for quite sometime because everyone has thoughts about it but can't actually stab someone with enough will power to do so. Additionally, the blood on the back of the knife shows that he must've swung backwards to have the amount of blood on that oneside. Since there is just a little droplet of blood on the front of the knife. So it could also be shown as self defense or someone who's trained in combat.

# data[].attributes.body
On the first peice of evidence, it is shown that the knife is a cleavers knife which is used for tough meats to chop through. So whoever used it against a person must've had it on them at the time, it must've been a planned attack since there were no blood trailings ain the house or near the back door.
On the second peice of evidence their blood splatters in the grass, identifying that one or two people must've been fighting for a while since the blood is a darker shade, then it usually is when it is fresh. Also there are two blood splatters one of them next to the knife and the over further away, showing that the fight was being pushed around the garden. The third peice of evidence was the backdoor as it was ajar that shows that someone must've entered the house to either attack or defend themselves.
And the fourth peice of evidence suggests that there was a sign of struggle since it appears that it is facing away from the gate so ,someone must've tripped over it not knowing it was there.
