Education Matters: Cabot High School Students Solve Crimes in the Classroom
CABOT, AR - Cabot High School is preparing students with hands on classes to get them ready.
"The gunman was either standing over there."
"Shot him in the front of the head with the exit wound to the back."
It looks and sounds like something you never want to be faced with.A crime scene investigation, especially murder on a school campus.
But as Tim Seay, Cabot High School Criminal Justice Instructor tells us this CSI class won't send anyone to the morgue or a suspect to jail. It's strictly for training and teaching students how to properly process a crime scene.
"Through crime scene photography, collecting evidence, measuring evidence, drawing a crime scene diagram," says Seay.
Even dusting and lifting fingerprints, basically students are getting the same training law enforcement officers get that senior Noah Rosson says is better than reading about it in a textbook.
"I definitely learned more here today, this is the first time I've actually processed a crime scene," says Rosson.
Now that it's processed students have a pretty good idea of what happened to their victim.
"So we're thinking after he was done he was standing here close to the door maybe over there."
