In the days following a mass shooting at a mall in Columbia, Maryland, the digital forensic analysis of the shooter’s Apple iPhone, computer, and iPhone backups played a pivotal role in the investigation. The digital forensic analysis was performed using the assistance of BlackBag’s BlackLight software. The investigation revealed a timeline of events leading up to the shooting and uncovered details about the shooter’s research, planning, and mental state. It was also the digital forensic investigation which led police to discover the shooter’s Tumblr blog and the last post he made with his iPhone moments before shooting his first victim. BlackBag Technologies’ BlackLight, software that quickly analyzes computer volumes and mobile devices and allows for easy searching and filtering through large data sets, was used to make key discoveries in a mass shooting that led to solving the investigation.
