The Commonwealth’s Attorney’s third annual Forensics Camp will take place June 23-27, and applications for admission are open now.

The one-week, half-day program hosted by Commonwealth’s Attorney C. Phillips Ferguson will teach students ages 12 to 15 about the study of forensics through criminal law. Students will learn about the different stages evidence goes through — observation, photography, evidence collection, preservation and testimony in court.

The camp is free to all participants, but the class size is limited to 40 students.
