Although not as unique as fingerprints, dental records are fairly (Unit10) conclusive. Anyone who visits a dentist is required to have their teeth X-Rayed on a regular basis. Dentists There is a plethora of different observations and procedures which may be keep these documents on file, as well as the detailed records of dental work performed. Teeth are extremely utilized upon the discovery of a dead body. resilient and often remain intact after death. Coroners and pathologists spend a lifetime honing their judgment in such cases. This When these records are paired with other evidence, they are enough to make a positive chapter will discuss the basic procedures match. followed concerning the treatment of bodies with explanations for a few simple occurrences. These are in no way inclusive DNA has become an invaluable tool in and are only a sample of what is or may be the pursuit of identifying an unidentified body done concerning possible treatment of a (see the next unit in this book). In recent body. years, scientists have made it possible to withdraw usable samples from many different sources. DNA typing however has to be Identifying Dead Bodies matched to a known sample, but DNA Most deaths occur in the presence of friends and samples are not kept on record as are family with little question as to their identity. Often family fingerprints. A control sample may be taken members are asked to officially identify a body. When from a location containing known DNA. Such deaths occur in family’s absence, the deceased usually has locations are often easy to identify in a some sort of identification such as a driver’s license or person’s daily routine. For example, known passport. However, when a body or portion of a body is DNA samples could be found in a hairbrush, a discovered but unidentified, other methods are necessary. razor, or many other household objects. Left, some of the instruments used to take samples from an individual. These are the samples which most likely contain DNA. If a control sample proves elusive, it is possible to take samples from close family members and deduce relation to a body in question. Obtaining these samples, however, require knowledge of possible identities. Fingerprints are a mainstay used in If there is not enough evidence to point to a suspected identity, an investigator may not be able to identifying unknown bodies. There are a obtain the crucial control sample. few problems which may inhibit identification through fingerprinting. Reconstructing the Unidentified (Medial Imposition) Fingerprints must be matched to a Although the previously mentioned methods are often successful in the identification of known set of prints on file. A lot of an unknown body, there are circumstances which make it impossible to achieve a positive people never have their prints taken by identification. Such is the case with bones, skulls, and some mutilated bodies. In addition, most an official organization, unless they are identification methods require some suspicion of who the person is before any conclusive tests arrested or their job requires it. can be performed. Often friends and family of missing persons are shown pictures of a body or Occasionally a body is found without body marks, such as tattoos, to get a lead on an unidentified body. fingers, or with prints in a condition which makes them impossible to read. Personal identification through the examination of bones has long been a goal of Fingerprints are unique and an excellent scientists.
