  • Tim is insufferable

    He just grates on my nerves, always waffling on and super un-succinct. Were it not for Tim Clarke, it’d be a good podcast. Let other people speak, Tim! Ffs.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

CLAREMONT: Police Errors
Q: What are the risks if police enter a crime scene without booties, gloves or protective gear?
Gloves protect investigators from hazards and help prevent fingerprint contamination; DNA contamination was less understood in the mid-1990s. Booties and coveralls can themselves introduce fibres, and boot-cleaning solutions were also used as contemporary practice.
CLAREMONT: Police Errors
Q: How important are items such as hairbrushes, hairbands and toothbrushes in a missing person's case?
They can provide reference DNA samples that help identify the missing person or compare later crime-scene evidence. Collecting several sources can reduce the need to return to the family home if one sample does not yield a usable result.
CLAREMONT: The Broken Fingernails
Q: How critical is time when a crime scene is discovered, and how quickly do forensic teams respond?
The response needs to be rapid to reduce degradation and contamination, with established protocols and a chain of custody to preserve the integrity of the evidence.
CLAREMONT: The Trial Resumes
Q: Tim, do you know how soon after discovering the body they identified it as Jane Rimmer?
That identification would come in the days and weeks to come as the investigation progressed and more officers and specialists reviewed the evidence and context around the scene.
CLAREMONT: The Trial Resumes
Q: Damien, does this seem quite unprecedented to you?
I've never heard anything like it; the rapid solution and the reliance on screens to handle sensitive material were extraordinary issues to manage in real time.
