A Revolutionary Technique in Crime Solving
Recently, the Mossos d’Esquadra implemented an innovative technique worldwide to solve a crime that was in doubt. It is a technology that involves a series of procedures and verifications that make it possible to accurately determine the distance from which the shot was fired and to know the almost exact trajectory of the bullet.
Cutting-edge Technology at the Service of the Scientific Police
This tool, developed by the company Indra, has been available to the Scientific Police Division of the Catalan police for almost a year. Piloted by the iForenLIBS, an advanced chemical analysis team with LIBS technology for ballistics studies, the Mossos d’Esquadra became the second police force in the world to implement this technology effectively, arousing the interest of internationally renowned police forces. .
Solving a Violent Crime
According to the Catalan police, this technique recently made it possible to solve a violent homicide by analyzing traces of blood on the victim’s clothing. The use of this technology rejected the author’s version of the distance of the shot, ruling out the accidental cause of death and turning the case into a homicide.
Crime Scene Laboratory Results
The Department of the Interior of the Generalitat highlighted the versatility of this system, since, being transportable in a backpack with a laser head, it becomes an invaluable tool for technical police ballistics ocular inspections, greatly simplifying inspection tasks and accelerating the obtaining of results in situ.
