1892 JUAN VUCETICH
In 1891, Juan Vucetich, an Argentine Police Official, began the first fingerprint files based on Galton pattern types. At first, Vucetich included the Bertillon System with the files.
In 1982, Inspector Eduardo Alvarez, taking direction from Vucetich took digital impressions from a crime scene. This led to Vucetich making the first criminal fingerprint identification. He was able to identify a woman by the name Rojas, who had murdered her two sons and cut her own throat in an attempt to place blame on another. Her bloody print was left on a door post proving her identity. She confessed to the murders.
