PRINCIPLES OF FINGERPRINT SCIENCE
THREE DOGMATIC PRINCIPLES:

A
  1. Individuality/Variation/Uniqueness (Sir Francis Galton)
  2. Constancy or Permanency/Immutability (Herman Welcker)
  3. Infallibility (Henry Faulds)
109
Q
  • Fingerprints are unchanging or constant from birth until the decomposition of the body of the person.
  • The friction ridge once fully developed its arrangement will remain the same throughout man’s life.
  • It is also known as the “from womb to tomb” principle.
A

PRINCIPE OF PERMANENCY

110
Q
  • There are no two fingerprint that are exactly alike based on Statistic Probability.
    ➢ Except if the two fingerprints were taken from the same finger and the same person.
  • Sir Francis Galton in 1892, concluded the theory that the chance of two people to possess identical fingerprint is 1:64 Billion people.
  • Two fingerprints maybe alike in its pattern or design but considering its minute characteristics, they differ.
  • Fingerprints of two persons can be similar but NOT identical.
A

PRINCIPE OF INDIVIDUALITY

111
Q
  • Fingerprinting is one of the most reliable means of personal identification.
  • Fingerprints cannot be forged, unlike signature and handwritings.
  • DNA Fingerprinting is only applied to high profile and celebrated cases. It is also applied when fingerprinting is not applicable.
A

PRINCIPE OF INFALLIABILITY

112
Q
