Description

Mother of God! We take another look at the science behind Line of Duty. This time for the Northern Ireland Science Festival in Belfast.
We’re going undercover and turning on our burner phones and investigating both AC-12 and the OCG as we ask, how do the police actually process a crime scene in real life? If they find a bullet, how can forensic ballistics investigators track it to one exact firearm? What’s the deal with examining a body? Are DNA and fingerprint samples always reliable? And why does DI Steve Arnott just LOVE meeting up for clandestine chats in grimy underpasses?
 
Hosted and produced by Emma Brisdion and Karen Collins.
