Well, I didn't invent the term "primary crime scene" so I imagine it was invented because "bodies get moved" !
But here we are talking about a "possible random assault leading to manslaughter" verse what ? A drunk guy asking a sober guy for a lift ....which results in possible murder and the possible disposing of a body".
But... I'll give you a "text book" quote.....seems they write these things in "text books" these days !
we understand that there may be two or more crime scenes in addition to the location where the body is found. These additional crime scenes may include:
- Where the body was moved from,
- Where the actual assault leading to death took place,
- Where any physical or trace evidence connected with the crime is discovered (this may include parts of the body),
- A vehicle used to transport the body to and where it is eventually found.
Edit.... does anyone know if SOCO where called to the alleyway / loading zone, out of interest. It's doubtful in a Missing Persons enquiry, just wondered.
