 In this module, please discuss the need for note taking and how it
might facilitate your ability to complete more effective reports.
 Additionally, please discuss the various options available for officers
in their note taking and investigatory efforts.
 Finally, please discuss the importance of accurate, clear and legible
writing in both note taking and report writing and how that might
impact your ability to effectively and accurately record the facts

The goal of crime-scene documentation is to create a visual record
that will allow the forensics lab and the prosecuting attorney to
easily recreate an accurate view of the scene.
