Even now, crime scene forensics are capable of locating and assisting in the conviction of all but the most meticulous of criminals. Add in 6th world tech, magic and ritual sorcery, and is there any runner safe if they give a corp / cops/ individual enough reason to commit the resources?

For small time shadowrunners i can see nobody comminting the resources, but once they start getting into the thick of big time corporate plays, and the machinations of those in power, one drop of blood from a bullet wound, one stray hair from a tight squeze, one drop of sweat, and you've left your calling card.

How in depth have you advanced forensics in 2060+? do any of the sourcebooks cover forensic science? Can it work for the runners as well as against?

your game sucks, sirrah, and you are a buffoon!

anyway. forensics, in most games, seems like it's best used as GM tool for justifying whatever he wants to have happen. it lets the GM have, say, Lone Star (or Interpol or whoever) put pressure on the PCs without the players necessarily feeling like they're being railroaded--as long as the GM doesn't use it too often. once or twice per campaign, i'd say, would be pushing it.
