if you killed some one in two feet of surf, and they washed out to sea to float for 3 days, then washed back up on a different beach what evidence would there be?
Beach sands differ. So do microrganisms in the water. Some of this evidence could remain on the body, and would certainly remain on your shoes and in your clothing. You, in killling the individual will have acquired traces of their DNA. (This is true of any of your scenarios.)
If you killed someone from a windy belltower at a great distance with a high powered, silenced rifle while dressed in leather from head to toe.
marks on the bullet tie it to your gun. marks on the shell casing tie it to your gun. Powder residue on YOU tie you to your gun. chemistry of the powder load ties you to the bullets you bought. Bits and pieces of the leather can be left at the belltower.
if you stabbed someone in the heart with an icecicle while it was snowing very hard.
struggle ensues, blood transfer occurs. them to you.
if you pushed someone off of a cliff while gloved
your dna is on the inside of the gloves, theirs to the outside. shoeprints and other marks will further build the case that you were present.
if you poisoned a stranger's drink while in line at Arby's and didn;t touch them or their drink
access to poison. video surveillance camera will reveal your presence and contact with stranger. the chemical composition of the poison will have unique characteristics. purchase records of the poison or consitutents for homebrewing will exist. traces of the storage and/or manufacture of the poison will also trip you up.
no evidence. certainly no dna.
plenty of evidence. plenty of DNA.
Didn't you see the CSI game prominently figuring in the picture of my desk in that thread?
