One of the most common types of physical evidence that an investigator and/or crime scene specialist will encounter will be trace evidence. Trace evidence is a generic term for small, often microscopic material. Trace evidence at a crime scene can include such obvious things as blood, hair, glass particles, or paint. Trace evidence can also include less obvious or less thought of, items such as minute fibers, or even soil.
