Our experienced experts at Key Forensic Services are highly-adept at evaluating complex cases involving breaking / broken glass, while always maintaining their impartiality.
If someone is close to breaking glass during any of those scenarios mentioned, tiny fragments of glass may be transferred on to their skin, hair and clothing.
At our forensic laboratories, our experts – who have many years’ experience working within the Criminal Justice landscape – are able to recover glass fragments and carry out physical and elemental tests to compare them to the control glass at the scene.
If the recovered glass fragments match the control glass, then the expert will decide on the strength of evidence based upon the number of matching fragments, the commonality of the control glass and the case circumstances.
