Have you decided that you want to work as a crime scene specialist but not quite sure if you’re informed enough? Well, San Bernardino Sheriff’s Department representative Steve B. Johnson recommends a bachelor’s degree in a physical or natural science and one year of full time experience. Johnson said via e-mail that this career choice is demanding, requires extreme focus for long periods of time, and would be best fit for a younger person who can withstand harsh conditions. The estimated annual pay for an entry level Crime Scene Specialist ranges from $40,000-$70,000. Now, if this sounds like you, consider Crime Scene Specialist as your possible career choice.
