An exciting, realistic sequel to our popular Crime Scene 1: Forensic Investigation Kit (item# 699819). Your students will assume the role of forensic scientists to solve a dramatic kidnapping case by examining samples of paper, ink, fiber, fingerprints, and blood. (Simulated blood is provided.) Enough material is provided to allow at least 3 classes of 24 students, working in pairs, to participate in the activity.

The accompanying booklet, which includes background information on suspects and the victim as well as instructions for the various elements of the investigation, can be copied as often as desired. Examination of fibers and paper requires low-power microscope (not included).
