THERE’S BEEN A MURDER! - THE RETURN OF CSI: ABERDEEN

CSI:Aberdeen, the flagship fundraiser run by Aberdeen Safer Community Trust, returns tonight (2nd June 2011) from 6pm at the Carmelite in Aberdeen. An exciting event, it’s designed to give participants a taste of forensic investigation as well as highlight common dangers and play a central role in fundraising for the charity’s projects across the city focused upon building a safer, stronger Aberdeen.

Now in its third year, CSI:Aberdeen has both fun and teamwork at its core. Friends, family and colleagues work as CSI Investigators, testing their critical thinking and problem solving skills, collecting and following the evidence to solve a mystery written by local crime author Bill Kirton.

Participants get to put themselves in the crime detecting shoes of Gil Grissom and Horatio Caine, interviewing witnesses, examining the crime scene and testing for clues under the microscope of a forensic lab and under the watchful eye of real crime scene investigators from the Scottish Police Services Association and forensic scientists from RGU.

Chief executive, Emma Bellu, gave a sneak preview. She said: “We’re delighted to be running the third CSI: Aberdeen event this evening. We’ve made some changes this year, adding a few new elements and surprises to keep people guessing but there’ll still be the same excitement and suspense in unraveling the mystery. We’re confident that we’ll even top the success of our first two CSI:Aberdeen events.”

CSI:Aberdeen is sponsored by a number of organisations including Printagraph, Carmelite, Scottish Police Services Association and RGU. As well as an exciting first prize for the winning team consisting of a driving experience offered by the Institute of Advanced motorists, a prize draw will take place with prizes donated from local organisations such as Northsound, Duff House Royal, Malmaison and First Minister Alex Salmond MSP.
