ABSTRACT

Before we can dive into exploring the definition of anti-forensics, we need to step back and understand the concept of crime investigation. Dr. Edmond Locard introduced the principle of crime investigation. He stated that when a crime is committed, there is a cross-transfer of evidence between the crime scene and the perpetrator. During a forensic investigation, we deploy science to reveal the transferred evidence and decipher its meaning. e examination process requires that the evidence is reliable and accurate (Harris, 2006).
