Following the Evidence

Throughout the investigation of the Beltway Snipers law enforcement collected a massive amount of evidence. As in all cases, some evidence ends up being of little use, and some ends up leading the investigation astray, but in every investigation there are crucial pieces that help to identify the perpetrators and lead to their capture and eventual prosecution. The entirety of the evidence from the Beltway Sniper case is currently being preserved by the National Law Enforcement Museum, courtesy of the Prince William County Police Department. Below is a collection of some of the most influential evidence collected during the case, both when the snipers were active in the DC areas and from their earlier crime scenes.
