Chain of custody – The process used to maintain and document the chronological history of the evidence. Documents record the individual who collects the evidence and each person or agency that subsequently takes custody of it. This chain of custody verifies that the evidence being analyzed is the same evidence found at the scene and helps ensure there was no opportunity for the evidence to be tampered with.
