Wed night there was a murder case that involved hacking somebody's head. The clue was the blood spatter, which would have been on the murderer's shirt. They gave a graphic description of how they tested this.
This is very relevant to the Borden murders. The story is definitely worth watching anyway.
Usually such information is not given to the public to prevent anyone from getting ideas on how to stage a murder with false clews. IMO

Don't know their schedule. You could email CBS.
Basically there are 2 murders to solve. story lines intermixed to keep a viewer interested.
Somebody was killed by whacking with a hammer. The lab boys noticed a lack of blood spatter on the dead killer of the husband. the wife was taking a shower, heard the struggle, grabbed her husband's pistol, then shot the attacker. (Do you see a problem here?)
This story is worth watching, I won't spoil it for you. I did think the stories were somewhat improbable. IMO
The point of any whacking with hammer or hatchet to a head it that blood spatter will result. a person standing next to the victim would have blood spatter on their front shirt. Note how they duplicated the results.
A lack of blood spatter implies innocence, unless they somehow eliminated the clothes.

It was Farmer William in the Bedroom with the Hatchet.

NOBODY SAID THAT AT ALL!Yooper @ Fri Oct 27, 2006 12:56 pm wrote:So, the amount of blood spatter from a narrow-edged implement is the same as that from a blunt or flat-faced implement?
Watch the show and see for yourself.
I haven't tested this, but I think a flat edged tool would spread blood more, but a sharp edged tool would create more blood.
