Psycho Killer Presents: The Detective’s Files (Episode 4) – Fingerprints: A Forgotten Crime Solver
Update: 2025-09-24
Description
Fingerprints may not grab headlines like DNA, but they’ve been solving crimes for over a century. In this episode, Jacques Morrell shares stories from his detective career where fingerprints cracked cases ranging from burglary and cheque fraud to cold-blooded murder.
Simon and Jacques also trace the history of fingerprinting: from its discovery in the 19th century, to the first conviction in Argentina in 1892, and high-profile British murder cases where a single print made all the difference.
Join us as we reveal how fingerprints remain one of the most reliable—and sometimes overlooked—tools in forensic science.
