Police forensics officer: “We always find something”

Not every fingerprint at the crime scene is usable. At least twelve specific characteristics must be present in two fingerprints. With meticulous precision work, the forensics are looking for them. “Unlike what is often portrayed in American series, you don’t throw your fingerprint in a box at the top and ten seconds later you get the suspect’s name and address,” says Peter Noppinger. The police officer is the head of the crime scene group of the State Criminal Police Office. His team secures the traces of serious crimes in Salzburg.

You can find out more regarding the work of securing evidence in the new episode of Tatort Salzburg. Crime scene boss Peter Noppinger gives an insight into his work.
