The proper collection of physical evidence and the effective use of demonstrative evidence at trial are the cornerstones of an arson case. This text, written for both the novice seeking to develop skills and the veteran wanting to enhance his or her techniques, provides a powerful tool in fire investigation knowledge. The book is divided into three sections. The first advises the investigator on how to legally enter the fire scene and includes chapters on exigent or emergency circumstances, consent, plain view doctrine, abandonment, open field, and Miranda warnings. The second section explains the methods of documenting a fire scene and includes chapters on demonstrative evidence, photography, video, fire scene models, and computers. The last section describes the procedures of courtroom presentation, including understanding the legal system, testifying as a witness, and qualifying as an expert witness. Through the use of techniques described throughout this book, the skill and ability of fire investigators to prepare and perform professionally in court will be greatly enhanced.

Download or read book Scientific Protocols for Fire Investigation Third Edition written by John J. Lentini and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-09-28 with total page 882 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Protocols for Fire Investigation, Third Edition focuses on the practical application of fundamental scientific principles to determine the causes of fires. Originally published in 2006, the First Edition was very well received by fire investigators and those who work with them. Since fire investigation is a rapidly evolving field—driven by new discoveries about fire behavior—the Second Edition was published in late 2012. This latest, fully updated Third Edition reflects the most recent developments in the field. Currently, serious research is underway to try to understand the role of ventilation in structure fires. Likewise, there is improved understanding of the kinds of errors investigators can make that lead to incorrect determinations of the causes of fires. In addition to the scientific aspects, the litigation of fire related events is rapidly changing, particularly with respect to an investigator's qualifications to serve as an expert witness. This book covers these latest developments and ties together the changing standards for fire investigations with the fundamental scientific knowledge presented in the early chapters of the book. The book is intended for those individuals who have recently entered the field of fire investigation, and those who are studying fire investigation with a plan to become certified professionals. In addition, professionals in the insurance industry who hire fire investigators will find this an invaluable resource. Insurance companies have sustained significant losses by hiring individuals who are not qualified, resulting in cases being settled or lost at a cost of millions. Insurance adjusters and investigators will learn to recognize quality fire investigations and those that are not up to today's standards. Lastly, this book is also for the many attorneys who litigate fire cases. Written with language and terms that make the science accessible even to the non-scientist, this new edition will be a welcome resource to any professional involved in fire and arson cases.
