In accordance with what was requested there proceeded the detailed observation and
discovery of possible trace evidence of a biological nature on the the three sofa pieces, with
recourse to [using] techniques of direct observation and a sweeping light using an alternating-wave light source appropriate for the task.

In a first phase there proceeded the recovery of various hairs existing on the referred sofa
pieces, using tweezers appropriate for the task, they [the hairs] having been placed in a paper envelope in accordance with procedures issued by the LPC Biology Section.
These recoveries were referenced as trace evidence numbers 1, 2 and 3 in accordance with the reference tags placed on the sofa.
Then there proceeded the search and detection of red/brown-coloured spots that would suggest blood on the three sofa pieces. All the spots detected were submitted to the "Kastle-Mayer" peroxidase test for the presence of blood; all the results obtained were negative.
There also proceeded, on all sofa pieces, the search for the possible existence of semen, skin, saliva, etc., the results obtained having been negative.
After the above search there proceeded the use of a chemical product to find latent blood traces. In the application of that product there were no results characteristic of the presence of blood traces on any of the sofa pieces.
- CONCLUSION -
In the examination performed on the three pieces of sofa, in the garage of the Portimao DIC of the Policia Judiciaria, there were detected and collected various hairs, as better described in the body of this report, they having been referenced as trace evidence numbers 1, 2 and 3, which were delivered to the LPC Biology Section under delivery note 199/2007-CR/L, copy attached, for them to be preserved for future/possible expert examination.
