🔬 GUNSHOT RESIDUE CAN TELL A STORY — BUT IT DOESN’T ALWAYS TELL THE WHOLE STORY.
Gunshot residue (GSR) evidence can become an important issue in criminal investigations involving fi****ms. But the presence or absence of GSR needs to be carefully evaluated within the context of the entire case.
At Becker & Becker Investigations, we assist defense attorneys with reviewing and investigating firearm-related cases, including:
• Gunshot residue reports and laboratory findings
• Collection methods and evidence handling
• Potential transfer and environmental contamination issues
• Witness statements and shooting-scene evidence
• Photographs, video, body-worn camera footage, and physical evidence
• Timelines and inconsistencies within police reports
• Identifying areas requiring additional investigation or expert review
A GSR result should never be viewed in isolation. Understanding how the evidence was collected, where it was found, when it was collected, and what other evidence exists can be critical when evaluating a case.
