How was forensic science used in these cases?
The Azaria Chamberlain Case
"some of the bloodstained items were removed from the tent" DNA samples could probably been used from the blood, or the blood could have been used to find out the babys blood type, which would help in the search.
The Shirley McKie Story
"her fingerprints were later supposedly found." Because of this small piece of evidence, it means that she could have been there, because everyone's fingerprint is different!
Jon Benet Ramsey
"the note was written from pen and paper found in Patsy's own writing corner." Chromatography would have been used to separate the ink on the note and in suspected, er, pens. Then the pattern that matched the note would probably have been used to write the note.
"an open basement window, an unidentifed boot print outside the house, a hand made strangling device and a possible sexual attack on the child." All of these things (even the body or the clothes) could have been tested for fingerprints, DNA or blood samples for testing.
