Prof Dame Sue Black, Baroness of Strome talks to VICE World News about her work as a Forensic Anthropologist and our H-Unique project.
Sue Black has dedicated her life to catching child sex abusers. The crime itself is unusual, as perpetrators will often record themselves in the act. Generally, they don’t show their faces, but sometimes abusers’ hands are visible. And, as it turns out, vein patterns in people’s hands and forearms are pretty unique. In the fight against some of the world’s most horrendous crimes Sue explains that although DNA has often been the gold standard, hands may hold the key to catching sex abusers.
