Aan het begin van de 20e eeuw, geïnspireerd door de Sherlock Holmes-romans van Arthur Conan Doyle, begonnen wetenschappers hun intrede te doen op de plaats delict. Al snel werd ontdekt dat het bestuderen van de 'stille getuigen', fysiek bewijsmateriaal en sporen die verband hielden met een misdaad, een schat aan informatie kon opleveren. In veel landen begonnen pioniers dit nieuwe wetenschapsgebied vorm te geven door belangrijke principes te formuleren en nieuwe methoden en instrumenten te introduceren. In Nederland ontpopte Co van Ledden Hulsebosch zich als de eerste toegewijde forensisch wetenschapper en hij werd al snel een bekend figuur. In 1945 publiceerde hij zijn memoires 'Veertig jaar detectivewerk', waarin hij zijn meest memorabele zaken beschrijft en de lezer een boeiend inzicht geeft in hoe hij zoveel misdaden wist op te lossen door middel van logisch redeneren en het gebruik van wetenschap. Bijna tachtig jaar later viert een forensisch academisch netwerk in Nederland zijn 10-jarig jubileum. Dit netwerk, bestaande uit forensische wetenschappers van Nederlandse universiteiten, academische medische centra, de Nederlandse politie en het Nederlands Forensisch Instituut, is vernoemd naar deze Nederlandse forensische legende: het Co van Ledden Hulsebosch Center (clhc). Voor deze bijzondere gelegenheid hebben aan het clhc verbonden wetenschappers en experts de memoires van Co van Ledden Hulsebosch vertaald met behulp van moderne AI-tools en daarbij ook hedendaagse inzichten en perspectieven geboden. Laat u verrassen door de relevantie van het werk van Co van Ledden Hulsebosch voor strafrechtelijk onderzoek in de 21e eeuw.…
