The RCHS Crime Scene Investigators were officially called to their first scene today—unidentified female in her 20’s found deceased.
Students were met at the scene by First Responder, Brad Ameter with the Richland County Sheriff’s Department. Officer Ameter secured the scene and alerted the students as to what was found upon entry.
Sergeant Dewayne Morris, retired ISP CSI helped to walk the students through the steps taken at a crime scene, assisted in photographing, sketching and documenting evidence, and encouraged them to use their deductive reasoning skills to think beyond what they saw in front of them.
Come with us this semester as the RCHS Biomedical Science class works to determine the identity of the unknown and solve this case!
