Identify Elimination Samples.

What will be an ideal response?


Elimination samples can be used to determine whether the evidence comes from the suspect or from someone else. It is important for the investigator, while still at the crime scene, to think ahead to the time of trial and possible defenses. For example, in the case of a residential burglary in which the suspect may have drunk a glass of water at the crime scene, an officer should identify appropriate people, such as household members, for future elimination sample testing.
