Synopsis
As criminals become more sophisticated and crimes more complex, the police must turn to speedier and more scientific means of weeding through clues and narrowing down suspects. That's where the forensics labs come into play. Sasaki Mariko (Sawaguchi Yasuko) is a highly talented forensics scientist who must dodge stereotypes, as well as disparaging comments from veteran detectives -- KIKU-TV
NOTE: This renzoku drama is broken up into different series. Years 1999 through 2002, the series was named Kasouken no Onna. The series technically ended as of the 2002 season, with a total of four seasons. In 2004, TV Asahi brought back the series as a whole new renzoku drama, called Shin Kasouken no Onna, or New Woman of the Crime Lab. 2004 season is identified as new season 1, although most people, including KIKU-TV, identifies this as season 5. For the sake of accuracy, DramaWiki chooses to use TV Asahi's official naming convention. Starting with 2009, the series title returned to Kasouken no Onna, usually distinguished by the year of broadcast (e.g. Kasouken no Onna 2009).
