Forensics: Footprinting

To begin the lab we were asked to place our foot into a bucket filled with dirt and then take measurements of it.
This was my foot. As you can see the bottom was just a roundish indent. The reason behind that was I was wearing heels that day. 

Length: 8 in
Width: 4.5 in 
Position in track series: Straight
Depth of heel: 1 in

This activity helped us see how a footprint left could possibly help us identify a suspect.

    Overall good post, I'd just elaborate further on the actual data itself.
