Blog 22: Answer 3

1. What is answer 1 to your EQ? Be specific in your answer and write it like a thesis statement.

Answer 1 to my EQ "What is the most important factor of a skeletal remain in a criminal investigation?" is matching a weapon or natural component that was left as a striation of the remains because of the fact that DNA or lethal vectors need to match to an object used to succeed in the cause of death and match trauma mortem.

2. What possible evidence do you have to support this answer?

Possible evidence that I have to support this answer includes:

According to Kristina Killgrove PhD of the University of North Carolina, who was my fourth interview due to her experience in the science field of biological anthropology with an emphasis on human osteology. After observing her work tat she has done that has been documented in many  of her cases certain variables must be isolated to match the fracture angle, clusters, rust, and any DNA that can be found, obtained, and then analysed from the weapon. DNA or lethal vectors need to match to an object used in order to succeed in the vectors of finding out the cause of death.

According to Terri Armenta the advisory and head chief of the Forensic Science Academy Club, where I perform my service learning, in cases where facial reconstructions are performed, you can actually begin to acknowledge to entail what the weapon can become; from an individuals chocking hands to a pickax as a blunt force trauma, anything can be possible in a crime.

According to Dr William R. Maples, author of "Dead Men do Tell Tales: The Strange and Fascinating Cases of a Forensic Anthropologist" natural components that can leave striations within the bone include animal teeth (including those of humans) He has detailed in cases where carnivorous monkeys feed off of deceased individuals of war as well as observing cases of cannibalism even though they have detrimental effects to the human development of the brain.

3. What source(s) did you find this evidence and/or answer?
Sources that I found my evidence and answer include:

Source from Kristina Killgrove is from her work at the Resource of Archaeology Laboratory at the University of North Carolina. Working in collaboration with the American Board of Physical Anthropologists, Dr Killgrove has created an excellent advancement in the field of anthropology by all of her evidence-heavy lab work that she has worked in over the past fifteen years of her study suggests that a match must be presented in order for the jury or judge of the trial to be fully convinced of the evidence that an individual accused is guilty or not guilty of said charges.

Source from Terri Armenta is a PhD creditworthy forensic scientists who is in charge of the Forensic Science Academy along side with my personal trainer forensic anthropologist Ashlee Enriquez. Dr Armenta can with this conclusion of knowing the range of trauma the weapons can range from in order to understand that any object can be considered lethal and anything can actually in essence, be part of the cause of death in certain situations among mass grave murders and Holocaust cases.

Source Dr William r. Maples PhD in Physical Anthropology with an emphasis in Criminology stated in his book and various interviews during his lifetime. Working in the field for over his entire life, focused on understanding the possibilities of what striations are left in-printed onto the bone struct-ion and be able to come into conclusions of what had occurred. Among finding the angle, the fact that natural resources such as animal decomposition inhibitors play a role, their effect is often overlooked but actually observed in a lab state to know all of the profiling that can be established of the individual.
