abstract="This paper concerns a case of two bodies which were found dead in their bedroom, shot several times with a semiautomatic pistol. It was essential to establish if we were dealing with a double homicide, or rather the shooting of the first victim, followed by suicide of the second. We refer to the technical activities we conducted at the crime scene and the analytical approach we adopted, based on DNA as well as BPA analyses of the bloodstains we recovered, studied and collected during CSI. Following this method, also supported by ballistic exams, it was possible to establish the exact position of the first victim, and obtain affordable and useful results. For investigation, we need to aim at an integrated analytical approach which uses contributions from all aspects of forensics, especially when DNA and other analyses are available. © 2006.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
