Trace evidence includes tiny pieces of physical matter that transfer onto a surface when someone commits a crime. Examples of this may include:

- Gunshot residue
- Hair
- Fibers
- Dirt
- Paint
- Pollen

Trace evidence can help investigators thoroughly examine a crime scene and develop connections to suspects. It's typically admissible in court, so legal teams often present it to juries to help them understand certain events that occurred.
