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 fingerprints? International 1.

• 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 (cont’d)

• There may be 300 ridges on the skin between fingertips and wrist. There are millions of sweat pores between the ridges, which exude a nearly invisible mixture that’s 99% water and 1% fatty acid. Everything you touch is covered with this residue. The water will evaporate, but the fat remains. Fingerprints are still intact and readable on ancient mummies. • In ancient China, emperors used thumbprints to sign state papers. Artists used fingerprints on pictures instead of signatures. But the fact that every human being carries a signature on their fingertips wasn’t put to use in police work until William Herschel became interested in 1860. At that time, he was working for the British government in India. He handled the payment of pensions to retired people. But frequently one person would collect his money, and then later someone using the same name would show up to collect it again. Herschel couldn’t keep track of the many people he dealt with— so he started having everyone sign for their money with a thumbprint. The fraud stopped immediately, but it was decades before fingerprints came into play where crime solving was concerned. • In 1892 a detective was called to a scene where two young children had been murdered. The mother accused an old man who lived nearby. He proclaimed his innocence. The policeman found a bloody handprint on the door. He called the old man to the scene, and had him place an inked handprint on a piece of paper. The prints didn’t match. Next he had the mother of the children do the same— and the prints matched. She had murdered her own kids because the man she loved wouldn’t marry her as long as she had children. This is the first recorded instance of fingerprints being used to solve a crime. (cont’d)

FINGERPRINT FILE (cont’d)

• Scotland Yard began using fingerprint evidence in 1901. Since then, fingerprint evidence has solved innumerable crimes. • For many decades, each police department kept its own collection of fingerprints on file. Any police department with a suspicious person in custody sent copies of fingerprints to each police department individually, and each police department searched through their files manually. It was a time-consuming and inefficient process. Congress established the FBI’s Identification Division in 1924 to be the central repository for all fingerprint records. Now known as the Criminal Justice Information Services Division, the bureau employs around 3,000 people and is the largest branch of the FBI. Currently the FBI has over 234 million fingerprints on file representing over 81 million people. Of the millions of sets of fingerprints in FBI files, none have ever been found to match. • In 1999, the Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System (IAFIS) went into operation. IAFIS stores over 51 million digital prints and compares them within minutes, pulling up a list of potential matches along with their criminal histories. State and local law enforcement agencies transmit fingerprint information to the system electronically, and get identification within a few hours.

FINDING FINGERPRINTS

• There are several methods of finding fingerprints. One of the most common methods is called iodine fuming. In the late 1800s it was found that iodine fumes, when they come into contact with body fats and oils, will react with them in a way that makes them visible. To accomplish this, iodine crystals are put into a beaker and heated, which produces a purple gas.

John Dillinger hired two crooked doctors to remove his fingerprints. However, he had an allergic reaction to the anesthetic they used and nearly died. After that, the doctors used a different method, using acid to burn away the skin. When he was killed shortly afterward, the prints were already growing back.

• Another method used silver nitrate and ninhydrin as dusting powders. Ninhydrin reacts to the amino acids in human sweat, causing them to become visible. Silver nitrate combines with trace amounts of body salts to form sodium chloride. The print can then be lifted with a sticky tape, and then photographed. Ninhydrin and silver nitrate, used together, can reveal prints left on porous surfaces such as paper or wood. • A third method involves the use of super glue. In the early 1980s a British policeman was using super glue to repair a cracked film-processing tank in a darkroom, He noticed that the glue fumes enhanced the fingerprints that were on the side of the tank. This was brought to the attention of forensic scientists, and in 1982 the super glue fuming method of lifting fingerprints was first used.

FINGERPRINT FOIBLES • In 1941 a Texas cop stopped to question a hitchhiker. When asked to show his ID, he said he had lost it. The officer noticed his fingertips looked odd. The officer took him in for questioning. After being fingerprinted, the police were fascinated to find he had no fingerprints whatsoever. The man said he was born like that. Police had their doubts and detained him while they consulted the FBI. The FBI instructed police to search the man’s body for scars. On each side of his ribcage there were five oval scars. When he held his arms folded across his chest, his fingers fit perfectly over the scars. A crooked doctor had removed the skin from his fingertips, then cut out small patches of skin from his chest. His arms were folded across his chest and his fingertips taped over the wounded skin. When new skin grew from his sides, it adhered to his fingertips in a natural skin graft. Alerted, police sent photos of the man across the nation. He was identified as a specialist in safe blowing, wanted for three jobs. • In Miami in 1990, police arrested a suspect who was thought to be a drug dealer. Upon fingerprinting him, they found his fingerprints running in all sorts of crazy zig zag patterns. It was like nothing they had ever seen before. Tommy Moorefield, an FBI expert on fingerprints, examined the fingerprints and concluded that the man had sliced the skin on his fingertips into tiny pieces and then transplanted those pieces onto other fingers. After the fingertips healed, his new fingerprints ran in all directions. Moorefield took photographs of the fingerprints and cut them into small pieces, then began fitting them together like a jigsaw puzzle. Before long he was able to match the reassembled fingerprints to a fugitive connected to another drug case. The suspect was convicted. • In Binghamton, NY, police had to wait awhile before they were able to fingerprint suspect Lane Fontes. Fontes was arrested after leaving the scene of an accident and, while sitting in the back of the police car, he chewed the skin off the tips of his fingers. This made police suspicious and they held him in custody for two weeks while the fingerprints grew back. Sure enough, they discovered that he was wanted for parole violations in Virginia. • In 1975 Larry Collins walked into a bank in New Jersey with a sawed-off shot gun. After swiping over $3,000 he was on his way out of the bank when the gun went off accidentally, striking him in the hand. He yanked off his glove to inspect the damage and threw it on the floor before running out. When police inspected the discarded glove, they found the tip of his finger inside. They got a fingerprint from it and shortly had the robber in custody. • In 1994 in Mendota Heights, MN, John Wuchko robbed a store. He was careful not to leave fingerprints at the scene, because he wore surgical rubber gloves. However, as he fled the scene, he stripped off the gloves and discarded them. Police recovered one, turned it inside out, and lifted a perfect print. • In Egypt, a burglar broke into a woman’s house. When she awoke to see a man bending over her, she began to scream. He put his hand over her mouth, but his hand slipped and a finger went inside her mouth. The lady bit down— taking the tip of the finger completely off. The burglar fled. She took the fingertip to the police, who matched the print to a known burglar. They shortly had in custody a man who was missing the end of his finger. He argued that losing the tip of his finger was punishment enough and he shouldn’t have to go to jail, but he did anyway.

(The Profile of a Warrior) Kingdom Warriors Wanted: Join us as we connect the passion of our heart with the skillfulness of our hands in helping people find hope and purpose with their life. Let’s unwrap the fiber of a Kingdom Warrior. This profile was designed and lived out through the life of Jesus. There are 3 B’s that make up Kingdom Warrior. The first B is Broken; A state of being where only God can put air in your tires. This is the place when the wind is out of your sails and we must rely on something we don’t have. My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise. Psalm: 51:17 The second B is Blessing; an open window for God to bring you hope and purpose. Jesus covered a multitude of blessings (Be Attitudes) recorded in Matthew 5. The third B is Benefit; A state of being where my life is being used to benefit others. If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides. 1 Peter 4:11 Every Kingdom Warrior is broken, blessed, and used to benefit others. If you want to be a warrior, follow the path that was prepared for you.

STRANGE BUT TRUE by Samantha Weaver

● A man in Orange County, California, stole a diamond worth $25,000 and, despite being arrested for the crime, was able to smuggle it into prison with him by swallowing it. He then managed to hide the gem in a shower drain in hopes of retrieving and swallowing it again before his release.

1. True. Tongue prints are as unique as fingerprints. 2. A dog’s nose prints are as distinctive as our fingerprints and are used by breeders for identification. 3. Fingerprints left by an adult last longer on a surface than those of children because people have more oil in their skin after puberty. 4. J. Edgar Hoover, director of the FBI from 1924 until his death in 1972, established the national fingerprint register which is the largest one in the world. 5. In 1883, Mark Twain based the solution of a crime on fingerprint evidence in his book ‘Life on the Mississippi’ and again in ‘The Tragedy of Pudd’n Head Wilson’(1884).

Over the life of the bulbs, CFLs cost the average consumer less than half the cost of traditional incandescent bulbs for the same amount of light. In addition, CFLs produce very little heat, reducing the need for air conditioning in warm weather.
