One of the world's leading authorities in forensic entomology has determined that capital murder victim Melissa Trotter was killed prior to the date that convicted murder Larry Ray Swearingen was placed in custody," Ligon said in a statement.
They cover mass casualty identification through DNA analysis, technology used for the identification of human remains, dental identification, biological terrorism, forensic engineering, investigations of human rights abuse, forensic entomology, mass disaster litigation, forensic toxicology, and specific cases in Nigeria, West Africa, and Florida.
Natural science forensic fields have expanded in response to these expectations to include most commonly forensic odontology (the study of dental bite and teeth patterns), forensic toxicology (the drug and poison effects on the human body), forensic entomology (the study of insects and human remains), forensic psychiatry (the legal aspects of human behavior), and forensic engineering (the study of device and structural failure).
