      Looks like the perp had a nasty cut on that finger.

      Yup! That's the icing on the cake when the same cut shows up on prints taken from the suspect :-)

      Very good job... a photo from a fingerprint !

      This is actually the dust that was applied on the fingerprint to reveal it. Fortunately it was on a glass surface so it came up really good. If you look real close, you can see the sweat pores in the skin ridges.

      Brings up memories of my time working in Criminal Records. These days more often than not, they wear gloves.

      Gil Grissom would be so proud of you.

      I certainly hope so, I mean, he knows it all, he is an idol :-) But he is so proud of himself that I doubt he's got room for anybody else.
