| Forensic Science Visit On Thursday 14th of January me and 30 other members of the science and engineering club visited the London Imperial college to solve a murder mystery. On the day we all arrived at school at 7:50 in own clothes we left school to catch the train at 8:30. When we arrived we put our bags in lockers and put our lab coats on. We were told what had happened that morning in the car park. The first thing we had to do was analyse different fibres found at the crime scene. Next we analysed blood samples found at the scene. We sprayed luminol solution on the blood samples to see if they were actually blood. Then we did some blood typing and the evidence was pointing at at two of the workers in the lab. Lastly we dusted for fingerprints and we were all pretty sure who the culprit was but I had my doubts. At the end they asked us who we thought it was and everyone said the same person was the murder. But then I realised it wasn't just him- he had a female accomplice. After we uncovered who it was we filled in a questionnaire and left. We all enjoyed the day and hope there are many others like it.
