Explanation

Open windows facing a public road are NOT a desirable environmental condition for a forensics lab. Such windows compromise physical security (unauthorized viewing, unauthorized access), expose sensitive evidence and investigations to outside observers, and may introduce environmental hazards like dust or humidity. A proper forensics lab requires controlled access, regulated temperature/cooling, appropriate room dimensions, and secure physical perimeters.
