Forensic Education - Lifting fingerprints with Gellifters

[@Ajesen]

you can tell someone is passionate about their line of work when like this guy says "look at this baby" for a finger print

I'd never thought of using gel lifters for indentations on paper. What an underutilized tool I have in my bag! Thanks for your videos! I often search through them while at crime scenes (for e.g. The snow impression one).

"You could do it on a floor, you could do it on the door, it doesn't matter. But it's better when it's dark." Just a universal truth for many subjects.

I love using gel lifters to lift fingerprints. I have black and white gel lifters, and I use them with silver or black powder, depending of the colour of the surface. I'm glad I found you Seargent Mike ! Keep up! Greetings from a Romanian Forensic Cop :)

Hey, how does the lab examine these prints? I am told from a state and local lab, that gel lifts are not recommended due to problems examining.

[@profmccutch]

I have heard this a few times and it is nonsense. The impression you lift will need to be reversed in a photo. That is as easy as Right click-->Reverse image. Done! This is the same technique if they use electrostatic lifts and some fingerprint lifts. They also make a gel scanner from BVDA. The labs that have a Gel scanner love them. The detail they can detect is amazing. Check out some of photos at BVDA.com to see what I mean. Thank you for watching. If you have any other questions, let me know.
