Crime scene contamination refers to the introduction of foreign or extraneous materials, substances, or evidence into a crime scene, which can compromise the integrity of the scene and the evidence collected from it. This can happen due to a number of reasons, including human error, poor crime scene management, and insufficient protection of the scene. Contamination can occur during the collection of evidence, when items are not properly handled, or when unauthorized persons are allowed access to the crime scene. It can also occur when the scene is not properly secured and preserved, leading to the introduction of outside materials into the scene.

The consequences of crime scene contamination can be significant, as it can make it more difficult to determine what actually occurred at the scene, and it can also lead to the exclusion of critical evidence in court proceedings. As such, it is important for crime scene investigators to take steps to minimize contamination, including proper scene preservation and control, careful handling of evidence, and limiting the number of individuals who have access to the scene.


In this episode, we take a look at the possibility that the crime scene at the house on King road might have been contaminated and if so, what ramifactions it might have moving forward.
