Case Analysis Summary
Introduction
The forensic study is the application of many science courses that cut across many collections and analysis of physical evidence in criminal cases. Advanced legal science began in the late nineteenth century when criminal investigators began to solve crimes. As the field of science expanded the scope, their applications to the legal issues become more and more frequent (Saferstein, 2015). The government department of examination where the FBI laboratory is based provides a broad range of forensic services to the forensic science agencies. The laboratory’s document examines and explains the evidence related to the broad range of crimes prostrated before it. The researcher put on forensic science hat and discusses the case study involving the skeletal system in forensics. Forensic anthropologists trained in anthropology, archaeology, and osteology is primarily the key players in forensic science in the field and the laboratory as well (Saferstein, 2015)
Forensic anthropologists use their knowledge of human osteology and anatomy to help medical examiners identify the victim; reconstruct what happened at the time of death and what occurred after death. Many cases have times however and again been reported and proven. According to the research, anthropologists use the bones to stereoscopically examine the age, sex, stature, and ancestry of the victim (Saferstein, 2015). According to the research over the skeletal case studied the anthropologist use laboratory to recover evidence and information. The laboratory has seven sections and divisions which assist the anthropologists in forensic science works as the author describes. The services provided by the individual projects sections include composite of suspects, crime, scenes, and video tapes.
Forensic science research and training center offer DNA classes to law enforcement to help in detection and recovery of human remains. To help perform the research the laboratory maintains files of physical evidence. It also provides experts with ill furnish testimony on the nature of proof (Saferstein, 2015). After this, the lab publishes the handbook of forensic science to explain it’s judicial to law enforcement agencies. The guide outlines procedures for safety and competent gathering evidence from crime scenes and shipping it to the laboratory for analysis. After verification, a legal charge over the offense is then carried out (Saferstein, 2015)

Conclusion
Forensic psychologists provide expert testimony that touches on many of the same areas that give information to forensic science psychiatrists and neuropsychologists. Also, doctors consult with the legal systems on issues such as correctional procedures and crime counteractive action in courts to decide the blame or blamelessness of criminal suspects by use of validity tapes, recorded messages and use of electronic surveillances.
