If you are a fan of CSI (Las Vegas), you know about the "miniature killer" (spoiler), a person who creates miniature versions of crime scenes. Crime scene miniatures are not new, some detailed models were built in the 40s by by Frances Glessner Lee, a wealthy, eccentric Chicago woman who had been raised on Sherlock Holmes tales and had a lifelong fascination with sleuthing and created the "nutshell studies". Further, she founded Harvard's department of legal medicine, the first program in the nation for forensic pathology.

More recently, Adalberto Abbate creates miniature scenes including crime scenes.
