Abstract:

To judge a signature fingerprint is made by a living or dead person， and further identify the condition of the fingerprint， is a new subject in the present work of fingerprint identification. The signature fingerprint usually is made by a living person. However， sometimes the criminals fake the signature fingerprint of a person who actually is dead through utilizing the corpses， for the purpose of disturbing the investigation， escaping the punishment or getting illegal benefits. Therefore， the study on the basis for corpse fingerprints identification can provide helpful information for the investigation. The phenomenon of corpse in the early stage is the key to distinguish the corpse fingerprint， which possesses specificity and relative stability， compared with the fingerprint made by a living person. Together with the reflection of fingerprints， the three features of corpse fingerprints constitute the scientific basis of corpse fingerprints identification. The research of corpse fingerprints should summarize the exterior features of corpse fingerprints and study on the porokeratosis features of the corpse at the micro level. In a word， the ultimate goal of the research is to enhance the scientific reliability of the corpse fingerprints identification， thus the identification conclusion could be used as evidence in court.
