Our Visit From a Police Officer


Steve Rumney came in a shared a great presentation about how technological advancements have changed the way he does his job as a scene of crime officer. We really enjoyed being able to ask him questions about his job and hearing his police stories.

Scene of crime officers lift fingerprints from crime scenes and assess potential forensic items such as blood-stained clothing or weapons. They lift, preserve and package evidence.

Scene of crime officers:
  • attend crime scenes and gather, preserve, package and document evidence to help in the investigation of the crime
  • dust for fingerprints, shoeprints, collect trace evidence and DNA.
