Tainted Trust
Poison is the subtlest form of death, and investigators must see through unusual circumstances to bring these murders to light.

Cold Blooded
Time of death is an important consideration in a murder investigation, but when a killer freezes, burns, or grinds his victim, even the most skilled medical examiner would be at a loss about how to calculate it.

Unlikely Sources
Some of the best clues come from the least likely places. Baffling crimes have been solved and criminals betrayed through evidence provided by insects, beer bottles, and other seemingly meaningless objects.

Natural Witness
The Great Outdoors may offer great clues to solving brutal murders. But it takes the keen eye of the forensic entomologist and botanist to decipher the clues nature provides.

Cold Cases
These cases took a decade or more to solve. There's no statute of limitations on murder. As a case turns cold, the clues become scarce, investigators must rely on science to close cold cases.

Texas Rangers
Formed in the 1830s to protect settlers against Indian attack, the Rangers became part of the Texas Highway Patrol in 1935. Their role has continued to evolve to keep up with changing times today it includes sophisticated forensics labs.

Lethal Dosage
Toxicology: While drugs can cure disease and ease pain, they can also be agents of murder. Toxicologists can examine blood and tissue to uncover cases where death is not as natural as it may seemfrom slow arsenic poisoning to quick cocaine overdoses.

Web of Clues
Forensic Entomology: Bugs have roamed the earth for 250 million years, but their intimate association with death is just now coming to life.

Toxic Death
Sometimes, the cause of death does not match the scene of the crime. When an untraceable poison is used to commit murder, homicide detectives turn to forensic toxicologists to follow a killer's tracks and expose a toxic death.

Deadly intentions
When abduction turns to murder, forensic science is the only key to finding justice for the victims of a kidnapper's deadly intentions.

Missing
Approximately 1.8 million Americans are reported missing each year. Some are runaways who find their way home, but others simply disappear. When foul play is suspected, investigators turn to forensics to find the missing.

From The Ashes
Arson Investigation: Insurance torchings, mob burnouts and arson murders: these crimes are designed to take all clues with them. But a solid case can be built from a heap of ashes.

Undaunted
Solving crimes may begin with gut intuition, but advanced science provides investigators with irrefutable proof. When criminals go to great lengths to mask their crimes, Investigators must step up the challenge and remain forever undaunted.

Broken Vows
When lovers turn on each other, or marriages fail, some ruthless spouses find a grisly way to gain an uncontested divorce with no paperwork. When murder tears lovers apart, forensic science must put piece together the mystery to catch the killer.

Deadly Dealings
For a price, anything's possible. Contract killings arose out of the need to establish the perfect alibi. By hiring someone else to do the dirty work, a person can deflect guilt, at least in theory.

Betrayed
Sometimes when a death seems to be accidental or the result of a tragic accident, it is up to forensic scientists to reveal the deception lying just below the surface.
