Shorter articles: technical notes- 1 type of finding, very specific, includes testing and validating, brief communication- specific issue, case study- specific example in detail, how something happened, what someone did, narrative format-> not just a story. 3 purposes guidelines for cases: assumptions can be misleading, unique situations require unique solutions, critical thinking is important during crime scene investigation.

Backfill (pile of dirt from digging) sprinkled with tissue, bone, hair, cheap coffin handles(silver).
