by Janet Spencer On November 2, 1904, the use of fingerprints began in Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary in Kansas, and the St. Louis Police Department. They were assisted by a Sergeant from Scotland Yard who had been on duty at the St. Louis World’s Fair Exposition guarding the British display. Shortly afterwards, the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) created America’s first national fingerprint repository, called the National Bureau of Criminal Identification. Come along with Tidbits as we examine fingerprints! FINGERPRINT FACTS • In some cultures criminals were identified by amputating an ear or finger, or by blinding an eye or cutting the tongue. Egyptians extracted teeth of criminals for ID purposes, and in medieval Europe they were branded like cattle— a practice that continued in China until 1905. Today we identify criminals through fingerprints. FINGERPRINT FILE • Fingerprints form about 4 months before birth. We have fingerprints (as well as hand and foot prints) in order to increase traction. The ridges increase friction against surfaces. Foot and hand prints are just as unique as fingerprints. turn the page for more!
