Day 1 at the Ohio Peace Officer Training Academy. For the next 2 days I will provide 16 detectives the basics of Forensic Entomology. Activities like this are critical to establishing the relevance of museum work to our society. I will share museum specimens with the audience and we will collect new specimens from pig carcasses while we discuss how the insects apply to crime scene investigation and interpretation.
