    How I be a blood spatter analyst?
    I'm handicap and wondering if I could be a blood spatter analyst in the future? I'm dependent most of the time, but there's some stuff I can do on my own.

    There is a fictional Forensic Consultant, Lincoln Rhyme, in books by Jeffrey Deaver. Lincoln is a quadriplegic and lives in an apartment filed with all sorts of expensive technology to help him with blood spatters, weapons/ammo used in murders, trace evidence of all kinds. He has an assistant who goes to the crime scenes and "walks the grid," picks up the evidence such as fingerprints and hair. Lincoln does all the an analyzing.

    I don't know if there are courses in forensics available near you. Would you be able to manage when away from family if you moved away to go to college for this? Most colleges help handicapped students find personal assistants and tutors, depending on need.

    You couldn't be a blood spatter technologist unless you can navigate a crime scene unhindered. I understand you are in a wheel chair; however, you could study to be one on the technicial computer side of this if you are wheel chair bound.

    I doubt if blood spatter analyst is a career. It may be part of the skillset of a forensic specialist, but it wouldn't the only thing one does. So what you need is to investigate forensic science in tital as a career.
