Basic and Thaumaturgic Forensics - Wednesday, Period Four - 7/29

"Ethereal evidence," she started, smiling at the assembled.

"There's certainly a lot I could cover, but I'm going to keep things very basic. Ethereal evidence is anything which is not physical evidence; it's a poor definition, in some ways, but necessarily vague due to the various ways in which one might observe and use ethereal evidence."

She walked up to the blackboard.

"Ethereal evidence is the emotional content of the scene, memories or impressions left in a weapon or location, any connections sensed with thaumaturgy between an item and a suspect. It can be as simple as the way a man moves to tip a hat that has been lost in a struggle to the evidence provided by a ritual designed to locate the writer of a particular note. As we have had no crime, and one cannot produce ethereal evidence in such a space as this, we're simply going to discuss the matter, times when it has been helpful to it, and occasions when ethereal evidence can be either useful or misleading."

[ocd up!]
