Physical Evidence

Physical evidence is one of the three main types of forensic evidence. Physical evidence includes any object or material that can be used in court to prove a crime was committed. This type of evidence can range from fingerprints and DNA to weapons and clothing. All of these items can be used to identify a suspect or link them to a crime scene.

Biological Evidence

Biological evidence is another type of forensic evidence. This type of evidence includes any biological material such as blood, saliva, hair, or semen. Biological evidence can be used to identify a suspect or link them to a crime scene. Biological evidence can also be used to determine if a suspect was present at the time of the crime.

Digital Evidence

Digital evidence is the third type of forensic evidence. Digital evidence includes any type of digital evidence such as emails, text messages, social media posts, and computer files. This type of evidence can be used to find out who committed a crime, as well as to determine the time of the crime. Digital evidence can also be used to link a suspect to a crime scene.
