CRIME SCENE EVIDENCE COLLECTION AND PRESERVATION
The following outline is currently being used by Trooper Steve Spurlock of the Kentucky State Police in his classes to firefighters and EMTs. This class has been taught since 1997 and has had rave revues by the students. You should note that Tpr. Spurlock's class is not accredited by the Kentucky State Police. It has however, proven very valuable to emergency services personnel in their duties.
Please feel free to print this page off and use it for your own class. Tpr. Spurlock wishes this to be distributed for other classes around the country. It is generic enough that you can add your own dialogue and photos. This type of training for our fire and EMS friends is very important. If you wish to use this, please contact biglaw and let us know. It is free, but we would like to know who is using it. Let us know of any improvements, too. We know we're not perfect. Thanks and enjoy.

OBJECTIVE:

To create a more professional working relationship between departments of public safety whose sole purpose is to ensure:
1)Quality of life,
2)Safety,
AND
3)Accuracy in incident fact gathering
for the citizens of this commonwealth.
