We touch things every day: a coffee cup, a car door, a computer keyboard. Each time we do, it is likely that we leave behind our unique signature—in our fingerprints. No two people have exactly the same fingerprints. Even identical twins, with identical DNA, have different fingerprints. This uniqueness allows fingerprints to be used in all sorts of ways, including for background checks, biometric security, mass disaster identification, and of course, in criminal situations.
Fingerprint analysis has been used to identify suspects and solve crimes for more than 100 years, and it remains an extremely valuable tool for law enforcement. One of the most important uses for fingerprints is to help investigators link one crime scene to another involving the same person. Fingerprint identification also helps investigators to track a criminal’s record, their previous arrests and convictions, to aid in sentencing, probation, parole and pardoning decisions.

Each person in the world has a set of fingerprints unique to them! Even though every print is different, they can be categorized into one of three general types: -loops (found in 65% of the population) -whorls (found in 35% of the population) -arches (found in 5% of the population)
Analyzing fingerprints can be a tricky business, especially without computers to help. After categorizing a print as a loop, whorl, or arch, look for these individual features: -core: in a loop fingerprint, this is the center of the loop. -delta: in loop and whorl patterns, this is an area where ridges meet from three directions. (There is usually one delta on a loop and two or more on a whorl. -ridge end: notice where individual ridges come to an end. -bifurcation: notice where a ridge divides into two ridges (like a fork in a road) -island: notice any short ridges cut off from others. -crossover: notice where any ridges appear to cross over each other.
Try your hand at fingerprint analysis! Two different fingerprints have been found at a crime scene. Compare them to the fingerprints of the 4 suspects on this website.
