In the law and in the law enforcement community the chain of custody refers to the traceable and documented path that begins from the moment a piece of evidence is recovered, and traces its path through each and every hand through which it passes up until the time of trial.
The important chain of custody for the evidence at a crime scene usually starts with the collection done by the investigator-technician. The marking and labeling begins our control and custody of the items of evidence.
