34. Forensic team at Crime scene

That would be a serious breach of established protocol if a CSI unit did not show up at a potential murder scene. As I said earlier this would involve collaboration between all of the separate sections of the Sanford Police Department. Regarding the autopsy report I know that Florida changed its sunshine laws after the death of Dale Earnhart because the family objected to the release of the autopsy photos. I think the Martin family has a right to the report particularly since Treyvon Martin was a minor.
