Fingerprinting revolutionized criminal investigations-but its history is filled with surprising twists. In this episode, we dive into the infamous case of Will West and William West, two men whose identical appearances exposed the flaws of early identification systems and helped cement fingerprints as the gold standard in forensics. From there we explore the curious world of twin-related crimes: Do identical twins share the same fingerprint? Can twins be charged for the same murder? Join us as we unravel the fascinating intersection of history, science, and true crime, where identity isn't always as clear as it seems.
