Crime Scene Assignment

Crime Scene Assignment


A crime has been committed. You are to create the evidence at the scene of the crime without revealing who the criminal is. It will be the job of those observing the crime scene to solve the mystery based on the evidence you provide. Be sure that the crime is clear, that there are several suspects, that each suspect has a motive for the crime and an opportunity to commit the crime. Be sure that there are clues left at the crime scene. You are to construct a crime scene center where all the evidence collected will be put together so that others can solve the crime. Included in the crime scene as evidence could be the following:

1. fingerprints
2. a note or letters
3. footprints
4. fabric
5. hair samples
6. eye witness reports
7. alibis of suspects
8. red herrings
9. any other relevant clues that are meaningful to your story and potentially helpful in solving the case
10. Brief notes on an index card etc. explaining why each suspect listed could be considerecd. Include in these descriptions: alibis, motives, characteristiscs of each person, type of fingerprints, clothing worn etc.

Your crime scene center will be marked according to the effort and quality and accuracy of the material and information provided. Put forth an excellent effort and you will be rewarded accordingly.
