Abstract

The words of Paul Kirk, one of the most eminent criminalists of the twentieth century, summarise the reason why forensic science elicits so much fascination. Criminalistics (or in its broadest sense forensic science) combines all those analytical and characterization techniques that support all the stakeholders in the judicial system in the investigation or explanation of crimes. As such, a vast array of scientific disciplines can be incorporated within it and, indeed, this comprehensiveness is its greatest strength.
