This presentation concerns a year-old man who was found dead in fields around Foggia, closet o a blood-stained brick. After attending this presentation, attendees will understand, in order to identify the tool used in case of homicide, the importance of analyzing and integrating the data derived from a well-detailed crime investigation, autopsy examination, and subsequent histological investigations, as well as using a new spectroscopy technique applied to microscopy called confocal Raman.
