Forensic Text corpus

These are copies of actual texts from real crimes or alleged crimes. We have organized them into

sections for your convenience. They are a small selection of our corpus of forensic texts.

The texts on this page form a minute

part of the corpora of texts of all

types held by the Forensic Linguistics

Institute for research purposes

We are able to make further texts 

available to bona fide 

researchers under certain 

circumstances
