Csi

Post by dmegametal#1 »

OUT OF CURIOSITY..if you watch this show...do you really think this would happen in real life to solve a crime???

even if you really worked as a scientist trying to solve a case using DNA or anything..would it possibly work??

this show is quite interesting to watch :thumbs-up:

I think it would be that the CSI team would not be involved as much as they are. They do an awful lot more than just analyse the Crime Scene......

i'm pretty damn sure that in real life, female csi's would not wear their long hair loose and/or uncovered... too much chance of scene contamination. also they would all wear some sort of coverall.... again to reduce the chance of contamination.

tv shows like this have warped the general publics view on exactly what a csi can do, and the time frame in which they do it. then there is the lab equipment. not every lab has anywhere near the access to that sort of state-of-the-art equipment. when i lived in alaska, the chief forensic pathologist bemoaned shows like csi for giving the public unreal expectations.

I agree with that. Also, in CSI: Miami (the only CSI I watch) they always catch the criminals. I haven't seen a ep where the bad guy got away.

One thing is also how much you have people in the area where crime is committed, how big the city is. Like here in Finland where population is only 5,2 million, murders usually get solved. Biggest city Helsinki has only 500 000-600 000 people.

Wonder would we have caught the Lake Bodom murderer if we had the modern CSI back then?
