BALISTICA FORENSE
(objectives)
Educational objectives: Students who choose the curriculum focused on the themes of investigation and security, aimed at the study of legal, technical - investigative - scientific and forensic sciences, as well as analysis of the crime scene, will be able to acquire the factual and procedural knowledge fundamental to operate in the fields technical - professional regarding the methods to support the Judicial Police and the Judicial Authorities in the prevention and repression of crimes.
Expected learning outcomes: The purpose of the study of the subject of forensic ballistics is to provide the student with that knowledge and understanding of investigative activities through the analysis of concrete cases and then establish which tools to suggest to the prosecution, in the figure of the Public Prosecutor or to the defense in the figure of the lawyer who defends the accused, an activity that will then materialize in the hearing, providing the "certified evidence" fundamental data for the judge to be able to issue a just sentence. The ability therefore to understand, with a practical but reasoned cut, in an area of different possibilities for solving the problem. Law no. 397 of 2000 on defensive investigations recognizes the right of the parties to "defend themselves by trying", thus benefiting from the work of "technical consultants"; what until then was reserved for the Public Prosecutor is now also devolved to the private sector and therefore to the "Defense". The course of study initially sees the acquisition of knowledge of the ballistic elements, weapons, ammunition, cartridge cases, bullets that can be found at the crime scene. The dynamics of internal, external and terminal ballistics will then be examined in order to better understand what can be found in the crime scene. Everything must then be evaluation material to establish the best path to reach the "certified scientific evidence" to be presented to the Judge as part of the trial. In the final part of the course the student will have the opportunity to carry out one or more practical activities in the technical-scientific-investigative field which will result in the drafting of a technical report to be presented, if necessary, at the time of the exam.

Testi consigliati: La balistica forense - analisi e ricostruzione della scena del crimine - è una materia nuova che desta molto interesse, oggi più che mai, in ottemperanza alla Legge nr. 397 del 2000 sulle indagini difensive. La bibliografia su questa specifica materia è molto carente e soprattutto non specifica, di conseguenza per una buona preparazione al fine di sostenere l'esame si suggerisce di attenersi alle dispense redatte dal docente e consegnate di volta in volta agli studenti al termine delle lezioni. E' in pubblicazione il nuovo testo di balistica forense e sarà cura del docente avvisare della data di disponibilità.
