PATTERNS OF DETECTION AND USE OF TRACES OF EVENTS IN THE INVESTIGATION OF CRIMES

The variety of methods for detecting and using traces of crimes requires some analysis and generalization, search for a common “denominator”, the patterns of development of these processes. The aim of the work is to develop approaches to the method of detecting and using traces of crimes in criminal proceedings. In the course of the study, the author formulates a generalizes a theoretical standard for detecting traces of events and persons involved in them: 1) it is necessary to complete the study of all possible media and with the help of all of the following methods: using visual and sound perception, scent, taste and tactile sensations, using physical, chemical and physical-chemical methods; 2) when studying traces with physical methods one should use the following options: a) the use of special lighting; b) the use of infrared radiation; the use of ultraviolet radiation; g) the use of X-rays; d) the use of gamma, alpha and beta radiation, etc.; 3) when studying traces with chemical and physical-chemical methods they should be used in full and mandatory for: detection of berries, blood (benzidine, spectral analysis, method of precincts, methods of determining blood type, rhesus factor, methods of accurate determination of blood origin), fingerprints, gunshot marks on hands and objects; forgery of documents; establishing the composition of various liquids and powders, including combustible and flammable substances, etc.; 4) the findings and proposals could be used in further forensic research as well as in the conduct of law enforcement activities related to the investigation of crimes.
