Bloodstain Pattern Analysis (BPA) is a forensic technique used to examine the shapes, sizes, and distribution of bloodstains at a crime scene. By studying these patterns, forensic experts can infer details about the events that led to the bloodshed, such as the position of the victim and the assailant, the type of weapon used, and the dynamics of the incident. BPA relies on principles of physics and biology to interpret blood behavior. Analysts consider factors like the angle of impact, the velocity of the blood, and the surface texture where the stains are found. This information can be crucial in reconstructing the sequence of events in a violent crime.
