Abstract:
This essay engages with the question of surveillance and evidence by considering the use of media forensics in journalistic storytelling. The use of video evidence and other data derived from surveillance systems to assemble investigative news results in a documentary form of what Thomas Levin (2002) calls surveillant narration—a tendency in cinema to treat surveillance thematically while at the same time incorporating it into the structure of the narration itself. If using surveillance as the structure of journalistic narration seems like a natural fit, it is for its aesthetic effect as much as its evidentiary value. Forensic journalism is emerging as one site where media forensics becomes formalized as a product of popular consumption and sense-making, taking its place alongside forensic-themed reality television and fictional crime dramas like CSI, as much as real forensic investigations and legal proceedings.

Abstract Objectives To review the response to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in a forensics center that integrates an academic department of pathology with multiple regional county medical examiners’ offices. Methods Faculty and staff were asked to volunteer stories, data, and photographs describing their activities from March through May 2020. The information was assembled into a narrative summary. Results Increased deaths challenged capacity limits in a hospital morgue and a large urban medical examiner’s office (MEO) successfully managed by forensic teams and monitored by an institutional command center. Autopsies of suspected and proven cases of COVID-19 were performed in both facilities. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) testing of decedents was performed in a MEO serving a large urban area. Scene investigators worked directly with families to meet needs unique to a pandemic. Artful photographs of decedent’s hands and/or tattoos were offered to those unable to have in-person viewings. Pathologists and social workers were available to families of the deceased and created novel solutions to facilitate the grieving process. Conclusions Forensic pathology is important to successfully navigating emerging diseases like the COVID-19 pandemic. Direct conversations with families are common in forensic pathology and serve as a model for patient- and family-centered care.

Abstract:
Hans Gross (1847–1915), the founder of Austro-Hungarian criminology, developed an epistemology of suspicion that targeted and profiled individuals as well as social and ethnic groups based mainly on their uprootedness and displacement. The scientific practices of observation and analysis he implemented in criminal investigations were anchored in epistemological assumptions that redefined and questioned both the object of study (namely, the criminal) and the subject (the investigator). By transferring scientific ideas and methods from the natural and social science into police work and judicial processes, Gross’s study of crime merged biological and social perspectives. This meant the categories of deviancy were attached to foreignness and social difference, migration and effects of urban life. His epistemology was underlined by social Darwinism, and his forensics, far from being an objective study, advocated what is today known as racial profiling.

Abstract:
Terrestrial laser scanners (TLS) are used for a variety of applications, e.g., surveying, forestry, cultural heritage preservation, mining, topographic mapping, urban planning, forensics etc. This technology has made a huge shift in 3D spatial data collection due to much faster speed compared to other techniques. In the absence of guiding principles for positioning TLS relative to an object, surveyors collect data at maximum arrangements of scanning geometry elements due to fear of incomplete data of TLS. In 3D spatial data acquisition, positional accuracy and Level of Detail (LOD) are major considerations and are dependent on laser incident angle, footprint size, range and resolution. Mathematical models have been developed relating range, incident angle and laser footprint size for different surface configurations. These models can be used to position TLS to collect data at required positional accuracy and LOD. Models have been verified by deriving one model from other surface models by changing parameters. Effects of incident angle and footprint size have been studied mathematically and experimentally on a natural sloping surface. From the results, surveyors can plan the positioning of the scanner so that data is collected at the required accuracy and LOD.

Abstract:
Due to the capabilities of non-destructive testing of inaccessible objects, GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) is used in geology, archeology, forensics and increasingly also in engineering tasks. The wide range of applications of the GPR method has been provided by the use of advanced technological solutions by equipment manufacturers, including multi-channel units. The acquisition of data along several profiles simultaneously allows time to be saved and quasi-continuous information to be collected about the subsurface situation. One of the most important aspects of data acquisition systems, including GPR, is the appropriate methodology and accuracy of the geoposition. This publication aims to discuss the results of GPR measurements carried out using the multi-channel Leica Stream C GPR (IDS GeoRadar Srl, Pisa, Italy). The significant results of the test measurement were presented the idea of which was to determine the achievable accuracy depending on the georeferencing method using a GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receiver, also supported by time synchronization PPS (Pulse Per Second) and a total station. Methodology optimization was also an important aspect of the discussed issue, i.e., the effect of dynamic changes in motion trajectory on the positioning accuracy of echograms and their vectorization products was also examined. The standard algorithms developed for the dedicated software were used for post-processing of the coordinates and filtration of echograms, while the vectorization was done manually. The obtained results provided the basis for the confrontation of the material collected in urban conditions with the available cartographic data in terms of the possibility of verifying the actual location of underground utilities. The urban character of the area limited the possibility of the movement of Leica Stream C due to the large size of the instrument, however, it created the opportunity for additional analyses, including the accuracy of different location variants around high-rise buildings or the agreement of the amplitude distribution at the intersection of perpendicular profiles.

Abstract:
For today, environmental protection is one of the most serious issues for the government. The urban environment is exposed to numerous negative natural and anthropogenic processes. The scientific article considers the main problems of forensic analysis of the ecological state of the urban environment. Reduction in the scope of environmental expertise caused by urban development reformation became the negative matter. The authors believe that the forensic analysis is an important legal instrument for ensuring rational environmental resources management and environmental protection from harmful impacts on urban areas. Along with rationing, licensing, certification, audit, the forensic analysis performs the function of environmental control, acting as a guarantor of compliance with legal requirements. In order to integrate new kinds (types) of forensic analysis into a unified list of kinds (types) of analysis and to regulate the existing lists, the adoption of the National Standard on Forensic Ecological Expert Analysis is demanded; however, the adoption of a unified National Standard of the Russian Federation on forensic analysis is also required.

Abstract:
Extensive forensic examination of the hair of 209 'Ecstasy' (MDMA) users demonstrated virtually no correlation between self-reported tablet use, and traces of MDMA in the hair of users. Why should this be so? Three answers are possible, and all true. First, self-report is fallible; second, tablet strength varies enormously; and third, forensic analysis is of unknown accuracy. The first two are well known. Forensic analysis, however, typically presents itself as impeccably precise. The article demonstrates that not only is this claim spectacularly untrue, but also that validation of forensic analysis (and, thus, indirectly, self-report) lies in the very blind intra- and inter- laboratory comparisons that are never undertaken.

Resumo: A violência interpessoal urbana representa um sério desafio para autoridades e gestores públicos. Este estudo investigou o trauma buco-maxilo-facial decorrente de violência interpessoal quanto à epidemiologia e implicações criminais, bem como avaliou a importância da documentação clínica nos exames de corpo de delito. Foi realizado estudo observacional retrospectivo envolvendo 1.048 relatórios odontológicos de corpo de delito gerados nos anos de 2012 e 2013, na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil. Violência interpessoal foi causa de trauma buco-maxilo-facial em 405 (38,6%) exames, envolvendo principalmente homens jovens, brancos e solteiros. O agente lesivo mais comum foi o soco. Os tecidos moles foram os mais lesionados, sendo a equimose a lesão prevalente. Os ossos mais fraturados foram maxila e mandíbula. Os dentes anteriores mostraram maior incidência de fraturas coronárias. Quanto à classificação penal, predominou o dano corporal leve, sendo que as lesões somente aos dentes implicaram dano leve, grave e gravíssimo. Houve apresentação de documentação clínica em 132 (32,6%) exames periciais. O trauma buco-maxilo-facial decorrente de violência interpessoal alcançou níveis preocupantes nos dois anos do estudo, representando a documentação clínica importante meio de prova particularmente nos exames de corpo de delito indireto. Sugere-se a realização de estudos epidemiológicos periódicos, que abranjam as demais regiões do Estado do Rio de Janeiro e do país para análise mais completa do fenômeno, bem como a participação do cirurgião-dentista como membro efetivo das equipes forenses
Abstract: The urban interpersonal violence represents a serious challenge for public authorities and managers. This study aimed to investigate the oral maxillofacial trauma caused by interpersonal violence regarding its epidemiologic and criminal implication aspects, as well as to evaluate the importance of clinical documentation in forensic exams. A retrospective observational study has been conducted involving 1,048 forensic dental reports generated in the years 2012 and 2013 in the city of Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil. Interpersonal violence was the cause of oral maxillofacial trauma in 405 (38.6%) exams, involving mainly young, white and unmarried men. The most common harmful agent was the punch. The soft tissues were most injured, being bruise the predominant injury. The more fractured bones were maxilla and mandible. Anterior teeth showed a higher incidence of crown fractures. Regarding criminal classification, light body damage predominated and teeth-only injuries implied light, severe and very severe damage. There was presentation of clinical documentation in 132 (32.6%) forensic exams. It was found that the oral maxillofacial trauma due to interpersonal violence has reached alarming levels in both years of study, being the clinical documentation an important mean of obtaining evidence, particularly in indirect forensic examination. It is suggested to carry out epidemiological studies covering other regions of the State of Rio de Janeiro and the country for more detailed analysis of the phenomenon, as well as the participation of the dentist as an effective forensic team member

Abstract:

Holt Cemetery is a historic potter's field in New Orleans that has been in active use for several centuries. One of the few below-ground cemeteries in New Orleans, it is one of the most culturally fascinating burial places in the city. In spite of being frequently visited by families (evidenced by the unique votive material left on grave plots) and the final resting place of several historic figures, Holt is threatened by a lack of conservation so extreme that the ground surface is littered with human remains and the cemetery is left unprotected against grave robbing. Many locals have expressed concern that occult rituals take place within Holt, promoting the theft of human bones, while others have expressed concern that the skeletal material is stolen to be sold. Attempts to map and document the cemetery were originally undertaken by archaeologists working in the area who intended to create a searchable database with an interactive GIS map. Additionally, the nonprofit group Save Our Cemeteries, which works to restore New Orleans' cemeteries and educate the public about their importance, has taken part in conservation work. As of today all the projects and preservation efforts involving the cemetery have ceased. This thesis documents and analyzes the skeletal material within the cemetery alongside the votive material and attempts to explain why Holt is allowed to exist in its current state of disrepair while still remaining a place of vivid expressive culture.

Abstract:
Il ruolo della Fire Investigation, intesa come attività investigativa, riguarda l'esame degli episodi legati agli incendi con la finalità di determinarne le cause. Tale disciplina rientra nel campo dell'ingegneria forense, abbracciando diversi ambiti specialistici che hanno lo scopo di ricostruire il nesso eziologico fondato su principi scientifici che coniugano l'ingegneria strutturale con il diritto. L’investigazione sulle cause d’incendio/esplosione è un’attività che richiede particolari conoscenze multidisciplinari, quali quelle relative al fenomeno incendio o quelle sul comportamento al fuoco dei materiali e delle strutture. L’investigazione antincendio è, inoltre, resa complessa non solo dalla natura distruttiva dell’evento su cui si indaga, che vede gli investigatori operare su scenari caratterizzati da livelli di danneggiamento delle strutture e dei materiali tali da non consentire una ricostruzione dello stato dei luoghi, ma anche della carenza di strumenti uniformi per la ricerca delle cause di incendi e di esplosione. La tesi affronta i principali punti della Fire Investigation, per una maggiore comprensione della tematica, avvalendosi di informazioni reperite in letteratura. Le conoscenze di base per un tecnico Fire Investigator, sono l’analisi degli incendi, la conoscenza di ingegneria strutturale applicata all’incendio, la metodologia logica di investigazione come indicati dalla norma NFPA 921 e infine la conoscenza delle attuali norme di prevenzione incendi in uso, al fine di saper comparare gli esiti dell’analisi di un incendio con le soluzioni progettuali che più idonee descritte in normativa. La tesi consta di una parte teorica sulla pratica investigativa antincendi e di una parte applicativa di fire investigation con due casi reali, con l’obiettivo di fornire una comparazione dei casi di studio con le attuali norme di prevenzione incendi, per identificare i difetti progettuali che hanno contribuito allo sviluppo dell’incendio.

The topic of my master´s thesis was to create an architectural study of the Fakulty of Fine Arts in Brno - city part Veveří. The site lies near the Faculty of Law of Masaryk University and it´s bordered by streets Šumavská, Veveří, Bulínova and Akademická. The project ties together the architectural study from subject TG02 witch solved the second part of the programme "Academic Square" and it was a construction of the fakulty of Forensic Engineering and the background for both faculties. So the solution is a compex architectural study which sorts the urban and also the architectural aspects of both faculties and their background. The main idea of the urban concept is to také up the surrounding bulit-up-area which is typical for this part of Brno. The philosophy of the architectural solution comes from the concept of the traditional British universities. So the solution are two objects of the faculties with plane shape od the letter U which clutches the volume of the common background between each other.

Dissertação de Erasmus Mundus para obtenção do grau de mestre em Técnicas Laboratoriais Forenses
Fire scene investigation and fire debris analysis (FDA) are two tightly linked and mutually exclusive key elements of a forensic arson investigation. While the fire scene investigation is performed by a trained fire investigator, FDA is a task undertaken by a fire debris analyst, which is normally a forensic chemist with expert knowledge in analytical chemistry. To solve a case efficiently and successfully, cooperation and information- and knowledge-exchange are necessary, especially since this branch of forensic science is defined as one of the most complex and arduous ones due to the highly destructive nature of fires that severely compromises the integrity of the evidence collected at the crime scene. The task of analysing the fire debris for the detection of ignitable liquid residues (ILRs) is further complicated by the large influence and existence of interfering products. Most ignitable liquids (ILs) are made of hydrocarbons, which are also compounds that have been found in the substrate of common household or construction materials as well as being created during the processes of combustion and pyrolysis. The purpose of this study was to identify and characterize background, combustion and pyrolysis products of commonly encountered substrate materials in fire scenes in Portugal and observe the effects on ILRs identification by using headspace solid-phase micro-extraction linked to gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS). The results show that both the background of the substrates and the combustion and pyrolysis products formed during a fire include many compounds that constitute common ILs, such as alkanes and aromatics, that especially in the presence of low amount of ILRs constitute a problem in the conclusive identification of ILs. Even though detailed analysis of the chromatographic and mass-spectral patterns and the combinations of compounds detected in the materials can avoid misinterpretation, in some cases, awareness and knowledge of interfering products is essential.

Abstract:
One of the most overlooked areas in forensic entomology is urban, which applies to insects and their arthropod relatives that have interactions with humans, their associated structures, and companion animals. American cockroaches, Periplaneta americana (L.), are common pests of urban environments. Analyzing spatial distribution of P. americana populations in an artificial, outdoor environment provided insight of gene flow among populations collected in central Texas. This information provides for a better understanding of how and if populations were segregated, or if there was a single unified population. Populations can be genetically differentiated through determining variation of specific gene regions within populations. This study revealed a ubiquitous distribution of cockroach populations, and their ability to indiscriminately inhabit areas within an urban environment. Overall, cockroaches were identified from a large interbreeding population with no discernable relationship between genetic variation of P. americana and spatial distribution. Identifying cockroach populations is relative to understanding the ability of surrogate species indirectly affecting man by their ability to transfer disease-causing organisms including bacteria. This may have potentially deleterious health consequences on animal and/or human populations. There are several pathogens associated with cockroaches which are overlooked during diagnosis of sudden ailments with symptoms being similar to food-borne illnesses, including abdominal cramping, diarrhea, nausea, and fever. Analyzing spatial distributions of Escherichia coli and Campylobacter spp. in relationship to collected cockroaches allowed for prevalence of bacteria species to be identified among populations. The prevalence of bacteria isolated from total populations collected indicated a high prevalence (92.3%) of bacteria carried by the exoskeleton of P. americana. Gram-negative bacteria acquisition and dissemination of organisms such as E. coli was prevalent on campus. Screening for E. coli 1057:H7 and Campylobacter spp. resulted in no positive colony growth. The lack of Campylobacter spp. growth from cuticular surfaces may have resulted from undesirable conditions required to sustain colony growth. Data from this study corroborates the potential ability of cockroaches to mechanically transmit pathogens.

Abstract:
Fritz Lang's first sound feature, M (1931), is one of the earliest serial killer films in cinema history and laid the foundation for future horror movies and thrillers, particularly those with a disturbed killer as protagonist. Peter Lorre's child killer, Hans Beckert, is presented as monstrous, yet sympathetic, building on themes presented in the earlier German Expressionist horror films like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and The Hands of Orlac. Lang eerily foreshadowed the rising fascist horrors in German society, and transforms his cinematic Berlin into a place of urban terror and paranoia. This book explores the way Lang uses horror and thriller tropes in M, particularly in terms of how it functions as a bridge between German Expressionism and Hollywood's growing fixation on sympathetic killers in the 1940s. The book also examines how Lang made use of developments within forensic science and the criminal justice system to portray a somewhat realistic serial killer on screen for the first time, at once capturing how society in the 1930s and 1940s viewed such individuals and their crimes and shaping how they would be portrayed on screen in the horror films to come.

Abstract:
Rapid growth of embedded devices and population density in IoT-based smart cities provides great potential for business and opportunities in urban planning. For addressing the current and future needs of living, smart cities have to revitalize the potential of big data analytics. However, a colossal amount of sensitive information invites various computational challenges. Moreover, big data generated by the IoT paradigm acquires different characteristics as compared to traditional big data because it contains heterogeneous unstructured data. Despite various challenges in big data, enterprises are trying to utilize its true potential for providing proactive applications to the citizens. In this chapter, the author finds the possibilities of the role of big data in the efficient management of smart cities. Representative applications of big data, along with advantages and disadvantages, are also discussed. By delving into the ongoing research approaches in securing and providing privacy to big data, this chapter is concluded by highlighting the open research issues in the domain.

Abstract:
What kind of work does the categorical distinction between combatant and civilian do in the interplay of the necropolitics and biopower of the Turkish state? This paper focuses on a time period (2015-2016) in the history of the Kurdish conflict when that distinction was no longer operable as the war tactics of the Kurdish movement shifted from guerrilla attacks of hit and run in the mountains to the self-defence of residents in urban centres. It reveals the limit of inciting compassion through the figure of civilian who is assumed to entertain a pre-political life that is directed towards mere survival. It also shows how the government reconstructs the dead bodies using forensics and technoscience in order to portray what is considered by Kurdish human rights organizations civilians as combatants exercising necroresistance. As long as the civilian-combatant distinction remains and serves as the only episteme of war to defend the right to life, the state is enabled to entertain not only the right to kill, but also to turn the dead into the perpetrators of their own killing. Finally, this paper argues that law and violence, on the one hand, and the right to life and the act of killing on the other, are not two polar opposites but are mutually constitutive of each other in the remaking of state sovereignty put in crisis by the Kurdish movement's self-defence practices.
