I am trying to update the training in our Latent Section in the areas of latent development at arson scenes and submitted evidence from arson scenes. I've read the research by Mr. John Thornton, Mr. Buster Emmons, and Major Joseph J. Corr, Jr. I'm looking for additional techniques, especially those dealing with actual scene work. Any and all information in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
