How should evidence be collected according to the guidelines?

By marking the evidence with date and location
Collect the evidence, the bag should be marked with the investigator's initials and the time and date
By photographing and then bagging the evidence
Evidence must be collected and then immediately sealed in a sterile container

The correct answer is: Collect the evidence, the bag should be marked with the investigator's initials and the time and date

According to the guidelines, evidence should be collected and then immediately sealed in a sterile container. Option A is incorrect because simply marking the evidence with date and location may not effectively preserve the evidence or protect it from contamination. Option C is incorrect because photographing evidence does not fulfill the necessary step of properly sealing it. Option D is incorrect because the evidence should be marked with the investigator's initials and the time and date before it is sealed in a sterile container. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it properly outlines the necessary steps for collecting and preserving evidence according to guidelines.
