		TRACE EVIDENCE Trace evidence includes hair, fibers, glass, soils, particles, explosives and any small items found at a crime scene.  You should always verify that proper procedures were followed and protocols were not breached.  Evaluation of potential evidence prior to reaching the courtroom will help you assess the value of the evidence and whether procedures were followed to yield accurate results.  Daubert considerations should also be evaluated prior to entering the evidence or expert testimony.
