This is a paper that was presented at a training
seminar for lawyers in Los Angeles (USA) and is made available on-line by
the South California Association of
Fingerprint Officers along with heaps of other articles about
fingerprinting and identification from their official publication The
Print . This organisation also offers an on-line
bibliography of fingerprinting with over 800 references (many are
on-line). Be warned, it is a large file!
A very comprehensive site on fingerprints.
Hosts discussions on significant problem cases involving fingerprints
including the controversial Shirley
McKie case. The site also has interesting articles on superglue
fuming for latent prints. For more information on the Shirley McKie case
visit the BBC
TV Panorama program web-page for the episode entitled "Finger of
Suspicion" . A transcript for the program can be found here.
