Medium-velocity spatter refers to blood droplets that are propelled from a source at a moderate speed, typically between 5 to 25 feet per second. This type of spatter often occurs during violent events, such as assaults or shootings, where the force of impact causes blood to be ejected into the surrounding area. The size of the droplets can vary, but they are generally larger than those produced by high-velocity spatter. The patterns created by medium-velocity spatter can provide important forensic information. Investigators analyze the distribution and size of the droplets to help reconstruct the events of a crime scene. Understanding these patterns can assist in determining the position of the victim and the assailant, as well as the nature of the incident involving blood, forensic science, and crime scene investigation.
