68. SUBSEQUENT MURDER INVESTIGATION. FEATURES OF INVESTIGATIVE ACTIONS

This stage is aimed at obtaining all the evidence necessary to send an indictment to the prosecutor's office, its duration depends on the quantity and completeness of the evidence obtained at the first stage. If at the first stage, during the interrogation of a suspect or accused, he confessed to committing a crime or fully admitted his guilt, then at this stage it is necessary to find confirmation of his guilt, since self-incrimination is quite common. If the suspect or the accused at the first stage admitted his guilt not in full, then it becomes clear to him what exactly he admits his guilt and then evidence is collected aimed at finding the culprit in the rest of the volume, it can be either a participant in this case , or another person. If initially the suspect or the accused did not admit his guilt, then the search for further evidence is aimed at finding the perpetrator of the crime.

In order to search for new evidence, repeated interrogations of the persons participating in the case are carried out, since in their course data on previously unknown circumstances may arise, or the false testimony of the interrogated persons may be refuted. In the course of repeated searches and searches of premises not previously searched, new material evidence may be discovered.

When examining the scene of the incident, the following are subject to investigation:

1) the situation of the scene;

2) corpse;

3) traces of a struggle and other traces that testify to the violent nature of the crime and its individual circumstances;

4) traces of biological origin;

5) items belonging to the perpetrator and his victim, located at the scene.

To avoid damage to the corpse, the inspection should be carried out as soon as possible, moving from the center to the periphery. If the corpse is not identified during inspection, a detailed description of the corpse, its clothing, objects with it, and the surrounding area is entered into the protocol. When examining a corpse with damage caused by a firearm, traces of a shot on the body and clothing of the corpse must be examined and recorded in the protocol. The protocol indicates the number of damages, their location and relative position, the size and condition of the edges, the presence of a stamping mark, the configuration, area and nature of the deposition of soot, gun lubricant, and grains of unburnt gunpowder. During the examination of a corpse removed from the noose, the nature, direction, width and depth, color of the strangulation groove, the display of the material of the noose in it are carefully studied, the presence and location of cadaveric spots, their color and other features, the existence of traces of involuntary urination and defecation are recorded in the protocol . In cases indicating poisoning, traces of chemicals on the clothes and body of the corpse, burns of the skin and mucous membranes are described, the presence of vomit, blood, characteristic odors, and specific cadaveric phenomena indicating the occurrence of death from a particular poison are noted. When examining a corpse removed from the water, in addition to recording the physical injuries present on it, attention is drawn to the presence of foam in the mouth and nose.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Old phone: heat up after use 11.12.2000

Every year, the British throw thousands of broken, obsolete or unwanted mobile phones into the landfill. But soon, at the pan-European level, a law is to be adopted requiring the obligatory waste-free use of all electronics. Unnecessary appliances should be disassembled into parts that can somehow be reused or buried in a safe place.

Dismantling and sorting into parts small devices such as a pocket phone is a difficult and painstaking manual labor. Therefore, employees of Brunel University in London proposed to make mobile phones from metals and plastics with shape memory. When heated to a certain temperature, such an apparatus simply disintegrates, and the resulting pile of parts is easy to sort.

If you set up different parts of the case, PCBs and chassis to change shape at different temperatures, the sorting process will be even easier. Such phones and other electronic devices will gradually disassemble themselves into parts, passing along the conveyor through zones with varying degrees of heat.

The prototype of the self-disintegrating phone is already ready, it may appear on sale by 2005.
