How can insects help solve crimes?
In this episode of Minutes With, we speak to Forensic Entomologist Amoret Whitaker, one of the UK's leading experts in using insects as forensic evidence. From estimating when a body was first colonised by insects to helping investigators piece together complex criminal cases, Amoret explains how flies, beetles and even fleas can provide vital evidence that others might miss.
She discusses the science behind forensic entomology, the reality of attending crime scenes, the cases that have stayed with her for years, and how she copes with the emotional impact of working with death every day.
