Abstract
The meaning of forensic biometrics is broad, ambiguous, and contestable. The word forensic derives from the Latin forum, and means in the service of the Courts or Criminal Justice System more widely. This may include the processes of forensic investigation, forensic analysis, or trial in Court. It can be construed more broadly to include the domains of prisons, health care of offenders (particularly mental health care), and behavioral or psychological issues associated with offending.
