Create a Profile

In Create a Profile, we were asked to determine a profile given certain clues. These clues ranged from fingerprints to hair samples to handwriting notes. The profile of the person is extremely important to us because it helps us identify the true identity and intentions of the criminal. There are certain questions that can help you when creating a profile.
These questions are in bold below.


What do I know for sure?

Clue 1: 
Right hand prints

1= plain whorl
2 and 3= double loop                     
4= ulnar loop


Clue 2:


Hair type: White girls hair, looks blonde or light brown


Clue 3:


Handwriting: Appears to be a kidnapping note, it says "You will never find her!"
handwriting is loopy and appears to be rushed.


Clue 4:


Hair type: looks like a dog or cat hair, more likely cat hair.


Clue 5:


Red gelatinous fluid, maybe lip stick or lip gloss or strawberry milkshake.





What do I know but need additional testing to be conclusive?


Clue 5 needs to be chemically identified to know the true composition of the liquid.


What is my initial profile?      

The victim is a women                        
the killer is also a women
one of the two women has light hair, they are white women
the killer is instigating the crime, the instigating is portrayed through the note
the handwriting looks rushed, therefore it means that the criminal was rushed.

What are my next steps?

Determine the composition of clue 5
determine the actual composition of clue 4

  1. I really liked this one. Maybe an explanation before hand could have really made it from really good to really great.

  2. A agree with oliver, a description of the lab prior to the data would perfect this post. For Clue 5 might want to change "eed" to "needs"
