DR. MARK BENECKE - „Bakterien, Gerüche und Leichen“ | „Fälle am Rande des Möglichen“ | „Bodyfarm“

In the organizer's words:

The Cologne-based criminal biologist was trained by the FBI and operates internationally. BENECKE has set up special laboratories in Colombia, Vietnam and the Philippines. Numerous radio and TV appearances testify to the great public interest in his work. Here the viewer is given an insight into the work of one of the best-known and most successful criminal biologists in the world ...

"Bacteria, corpses and smells" (02.07.):

One day, a student enters the classroom and collects odors. He uses special equipment that captures odor particles and stores them for further investigation.
This unusual activity brings back memories in Mark of a previous criminal case involving a notorious serial killer who kept the police and investigators on their toes for a long time. The investigators used the trail of smells left by the perpetrator at the crime scenes to finally catch him.
These memories give Mark the idea of paying more attention to smells in his own work in future. He decides to take a closer look at the bodies he examines and analyze the smells to possibly find new clues that have eluded him so far...

"Cases on the edge of the possible" (03.07.):

On the edge are the cases that get too weird even for Mark Benecke's colleagues: Accident or murder? Can people be killed with body parts? Did a man who deals in weapons and runs a brothel really not shoot the now dead man in his bar this one time? Can police officers falsify evidence so that the very person who was last seen with the now dead woman is wrongly suspected? The answers are tricky, but exciting - as long as you don't think, but make the clues speak without making assumptions.

"Bodyfarm" (04.07.):

Mark was both a guest and a trainer for the FBI at the Body Farm, a unique research and training site at the University of Tennessee. This facility specializes in systematically studying the decomposition process of human corpses under various environmental conditions. The Body Farm, officially known as the Anthropological Research Center, plays a vital role in the training of law enforcement and forensic scientists.
Dr. Mark Benecke tells us what it's really like there - very different, of course, but much better than in the movies.
