Question 7 • Forensics 1a: Introduction

Claire, a detective, has screenshots that indicate that a man named Robert Farrel is targeting people on social media to steal money. What has Claire and the team uncovered in their investigation?

Answer
A
probable cause that Robert is involved in a crime
B
chain of custody that keeps records safe
C
a search warrant to check Robert’s bank accounts
D
a rough sketch of the crime scene

Explanation

Screenshots showing Robert targeting people to steal money are evidence that he may be involved in a crime. That supports probable cause, meaning a reasonable basis to believe a crime has occurred or that someone is connected to it. The screenshots do not themselves establish a chain of custody, produce a search warrant, or provide a sketch of a crime scene.
