Monsieur Bertillon
Alphonse Bertillon created anthropometry- which is the measuring of an individual for the purposes of understanding physical variation. He brought to light ear identification and ear print identification in 1879.
Bertillon's principle of transference refers to the belief that a person can unintentionally transfer physical evidence, such as fibers or hairs, between crime scenes through contact. This principle was developed by Alphonse Bertillon, a French forensic scientist, and has been an important concept in forensic science for linking suspects to crimes.
In 1903, a man named Will West was committed to the penitentiary at Leavenworth, Kansas, where he was photographed and measured using the Bertillon system. Will West’s measurements were found to be almost identical to a criminal at the same penitentiary named William West, who was committed for murder in 1901 and was serving a life sentence.Furthermore, their photographs showed that the two men bore a close physical resemblance to one another, although it was not clear that they were even related. In the ensuing confusion surrounding the true identities of the two men, their fingerprints conclusively identified them and demonstrated clearly that the adoption of a fingerprint identification system was more reliable than the older Bertillon system. ~NATIONAL LAW ENFORCEMENT MUSEUM
