About this listen

Some scenes don’t stay locked away in the case folder. They follow you.

In the kickoff episode of our Mental Health Awareness Month series, we sit down with Matt Davis, a forensic professional whose career includes crime scene investigation, latent print examination, and supervision.

Matt walks us through the early moments in his career that shaped everything that came after... mass casualty events, high-risk scenes with significant loss of life, and child death investigations that left lasting impressions.

Key topics include:

  • Early exposure to mass casualty scenes
  • Working large-scale, high-stress forensic incidents
  • Child death investigations and emotional impact
  • The beginning stages of cumulative trauma in forensics
  • What professionals carry home from the scene

This episode sets the foundation for understanding why mental health in forensic science is not optional, it's necessary.

🎙️ This episode is part of our Mental Health Awareness Series, where we’re revisiting some of the most impactful conversations we’ve had around stress, burnout, trauma, and wellness in forensic science.
