Death Scene Investigation Check List
Book Reviews
| Michael J. Campbell, Police Identification Supervisor for the Milwaukee Police Department, states that "this manual makes it almost impossible to forget something or leave something behind. If you are looking for a simple, yet comprehensive way to organize your department's efforts at a death scene, including sample forms, this IS the book."

| Phillip G. McManigal, former Sheriff, Jackson County, KS remarks, "Death Scene Investigation Check List should be standard equipment for every law enforcement officer. It is designed to drastically reduce, if not eliminate, the seemingly inevitable oversights often made by officers at the scene of a human death. As the former sheriff of a small, rural department, I highly recommend using Richard Warrington's check list. Small departments face common problems, such as lock of adequate funding to pay skilled crime scene officers or detectives. Most small departments also experience a high employee turnover rate and therefore have rookie officers responding to and taking charge of serious incidents. These officers need to have guidance and an edge that may make the ultimate differences in the final outcome of the investigation into the death of a human being. The Death Scene Investigation Check List is a small investment that may well prevent future disaster." |
