Crime Scene Staging Dynamics in Homicide Cases by Laura Gail Pettler

Criminals and individuals perpetrating murder sometimes pose or reposition victims and rearrange bodies, weapons, and evidence in an attempt to make it look like events happened in a different way than what actually transpired. There is scare literature on crime scene staging, and this is the first book to look at the practice. The book examines the subject in detail and provides investigators and homicide detectives with a toolkit to understand the whys and hows of staging and how to detect it.
