Monday, March 24, 2008
Back Print
Who: Caddo Parish Sheriff Steve Prator will host
What: CSI: Crime Scene Camp for Kids
When: Tuesday, March 25, through Thursday, March 27
Where: Summer Grove Baptist Church, Jewella Avenue

Campers will learn from real sheriff?s crime scene investigators how crimes are solved.

Camp will begin with a crime scene mystery that must be solved by the young sleuths, ages 11-12. Students will look for clues and collect evidence using techniques and skills learned at camp. They will also participate in practical exercises in photography, fingerprint identification, and shoeprint impressions.

Participants will use evidence they?ve collected throughout the camp to build a criminal case. On Thursday, they will see if their evidence stacks up when they appear at trial before Caddo District Judge Mike Pitman.

* Best time for video/photographs will be from 1 p.m. to 2:30 Tuesday when campers visit the crime scene of murder suspect Ivana Grave. If you can't make it Tuesday, there will be other (different) opportunities. Call me and I'll give you the schedule. Also, camp is full. This alert is fyi only, in case you would like to cover this event. It is not to solicit more campers.
