  • Introduction to Forensic Science

    Introduction to Forensic Science

    Introduction to Forensic Science Serial Killers I. Definition A. Serial murders - repetitive homicides, nearly always one-on-one murders, where the perpetrator is usually a stranger or has a slight acquaintance to the victim. (Historically, the majority of homicide victims knew their killer, but during the 1990's, this figure changed. Statistics from 1995's Uniform Crime Reports state that 55% of homicide victims have no known association with the perpetrators.1) The serial murderer’s motivation to kill is not based on crimes of passion, victim precipitation, personal gain or profit. Serial murderers are nearly always males prompted by sexual or aggressive drives to exert power through killing.2 B. Modus operandi - a characteristic pattern of behavior repeated in a series of offenses. The following are categories of modus operandi devised by Major L.W. Atcherley, an English constable in the 1800's. 1. Classword - the kind of property attacked, such as a house, a college dormitory, people parked in cars at lover's lanes 2. Entry - the point of entry, such as open bedroom windows, sliding glass doors 3. Means - implements or tools that were used, such as a pry bar, ladder, screw driver 4. Object - kind of property taken, such as bras and panties 5. Time - time of day or night, weekdays, non-work days, holidays (when people would not miss the perpetrator at work) 6. Style - the description the criminal gives the victim to gain entrance (plumber, cable TV repairman) 7. Tale - any disclosure the criminal makes as to his business/purpose 8. Pals - any co-conspirators 9.

    FROM HERO TO SCAPEGOAT: THE MYTH OF THE SCAPEGOAT IN NEWSPAPER COVERAGE OF RICHARD JEWELL AS BOMBING SUSPECT – A TEXTUAL ANALYSIS by THOMAS J. MYERS (Under Direction the of Leara Rhodes) ABSTRACT In 1996, a bomb exploded in Centennial Olympic Park during a concert held as part of the celebration for the Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta, Georgia. After initially being hailed in the press as a hero for his efforts to save lives during the moments following the bombing, security guard Richard Jewell emerged as a suspect in the FBI investigation of the bombing. The story was revealed in the press by the Atlanta Journal Constitution on July 30, 1996. What followed was an intense media investigation of a man who was not arrested or charged with any crime. This study examines the existence of the Scapegoat Myth as defined by Jack Lule, in the newspaper coverage of Richard Jewell. A textual analysis of 64 newspaper articles found in the Atlanta Journal and Constitution and The New York Times forms the basis of this project. The findings show distinct patterns of the Scapegoat myth in the AJC coverage, and an overall sense of objectivity in the New York Times coverage.

Some have lost almost everything in the flood, Some have lost a little, and some have lost nothing... Our hearts go out to all who have lost, and thanks to all who have reached out to help others. Due to the flooding, last month’s meeting, at LIGO, was cancelled. The September meeting will be on the 12th at the Observatory, which did not receive any water during the flood, thus BRAS suffered no loss of property. As part of our Outreach effort. If anyone you know has any telescope and/or equipment that was in water during the flood, let us know and we will try to help clean, adjust, etc. the equipment. On September 2nd (I am a little late with this message), Dr. Alan Stern, the New Horizons Primary Investigator, gave two talks at LSU. The morning talk was for Astronomy graduate students, and was a little technical.

To combat this evil, the New York Police Department (NYPD) founded the Italian Squad under Lieutenant Joseph Petrosino, who enthusiastically pursued those gangsters. Petrosino was assassinated in Palermo, Sicily, while investigating the criminal back- ground of mobsters active in New York. The Italian Squad was the gen- esis of today’s Bomb Squad.
