Hans Gross ­ Father of Forensic Science
An Austrian well ahead of his time, Hans Gross, who has been referred to as the father of forensic investigation, wrote Handbuch fur Untersuchungsricter in 1893 when translated became Criminal Investigation. The term criminalistics was first used by Hans Gross, and then later only used in print as a title of a book in 1948, An Introduction to Criminalistics. Today, no doubt, the core of our criminal investigation process has advanced due to the groundwork of Hans Gross’ script of criminal investigation. Alec Jeffreys

Edmond Locard
Locard's Exchange Principle.docx
Two Parts:
1) When a person comes into contact with an object or another person, a cross­transfer of physical evidence can occur. The exchange of materials indicate that the two objects were in contact. Trace evidence can be found on both persons/objects because of this cross­transfer. 2) Intensity, duration and nature of the materials in contact determine the extent of transfer. More transfer would be noted if two individuals engaged in a fistfight than if a person simply brushed past another person.
