If you thought leaving your fingerprints behind at the scene of a crime was a bad idea - you're right, and it's about to get worse. Some researchers at the Sheffield Hallam University have developed a way to capture fingerprints that can identify substances touched and secretions from a person's body. With this information, investigators can find out more about a suspect's actions and habits. This is especially useful for first time criminals who won't have any prints to match in the police database - their actions and habits can involuntarily give them away to the authorities.
