Day one started with a rather in depth lesson on body decomposition. Day two was more into the nitty gritty of forensic restoration. And day three was fully hands-on. These pictures tell the story!

R&R Editor Michelle Blevins spent the day traveling to various job sites with SunGlo Operations Manager Bob Graham earlier this summer.
