The Analysis of Significance of the Size of a Peripheral Zone of Smoke-black Deposition as a Sign of Distance of a Shot Fired from the 5.6 mm Margolin Small-caliber Target Pistol (MTsM)

Introduction. The investigation of a problem of range finding is quite important, because it is often needed in crime investigation practice. The existing methods are not always effective enough. Theoretical analysis. The actual problem of existing methods is the search of statistically significant marks of gunshot which allow to determine it short range and acceptable reliability. Methods of research. Simulation, experiment, statistic analysis. Experimental procedure.

Research into Morphological Signs Arising When Shooting from Snoothbore Hunting Weapon at Glass from Triplex

Introduction. Automobile windshields act as objects of research in various categories of cases – criminal, civil, etc. The information obtained in the study of such objects is of important evidentiary value. From the forensic point of view, the windshields of automobiles, which are made of triplex and have physico-mechanical and consumer characteristics that are different from ordinary glasses, are of the greatest interest. Theoretical analysis.

Empirical study of morphological signs of traces of gunshots with shot poly projectile on woven materials

Introduction. The theory of forensic examination highlights that an effective study of traces at the scene of an incident is possible only with a comprehensive study of all types of traces. Therefore, to objectively assess the circumstances in the conditions of detecting traces of fi rearms, one should apply an integrated approach to the method of working with traces and use methods of examination of substances, materials and products, alongside ballistic methods.
