Chapter 732 - 675: Stirring Up the Situation
Hearing that paint had been found, Tao Lu and the others grew even more excited.
Tao Lu came from a detective background and didn’t know much about criminal science, but he knew one thing: whenever there was paint evidence in the samples, the laboratory hardly ever failed. They would always have something to say, and their findings were widely accepted in court.
This was because paint evidence had an extremely wide range of applications, with the most common being automotive paint. In road traffic accidents, vehicle paint evidence was often used to identify suspect vehicles and determine whether a collision had played a key role. In addition, marine paint, architectural paint, spray paint, and so on, also frequently appeared in cases.
The complex composition of paint might be troublesome in industry, but in criminal identification, it turned out to be very useful. There were an absurd number of testing methods, such as microscopic examination, infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy, X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, Py-GC/MS testing—if only officials’ loyalty could be tested with so many techniques, integrity would have become the norm long ago.
The police department’s own Trace Evidence Laboratory also didn’t dare to slack, working overtime to help them jump the queue.
In just one day’s time, the test report was delivered to Tao Lu’s desk.
Tao Lu quickly skimmed through the test report, his face already beaming with a triumphant smile.
Upon hearing the news, members of the special case team filled Tao Lu’s office in no time.
