Storyline

- TriviaTish McCarthy is a pseudonym that writer Elizabeth Devine used to sign the story for this episode. When asked why she didn't use Devine, the writer answered: "Primarily because the episode was based on an actual case of mine that had just happened and hadn't been to court yet. Although it was changed for TV, I didn't want to interfere with any aspect of putting away a murderer of a whole family by having my name pop up in a crime scene that might seem familiar. I chose Tish McCarthy because Tish was my nickname when I was a child and McCarthy is a family name."
- GoofsWhen Sara is taking the ultraviolet pictures of Brenda, she is sitting on something not near the wall. When Gil and Sara are looking at the developed pictures, the tile wall is directly behind Brenda.

Catherine Willows: [to Sara] How's the little girl?
Sara Sidle: Uh, well, the shrink said she's in a catatonic state as a result of trauma. I could have told you that. Oh, but she did respond to the name "buffalo."
Gil Grissom: Respond how?
Sara Sidle: She freaked out.
Gil Grissom: And, what are doing about that now?
Sara Sidle: Going back to the girl. She's out in the car. The windows are cracked. Hey, give me a little credit. She's at the hospital.
- ConnectionsReferenced in CSI: Crime Scene Investigation: Frame by Frame (2013)
"Blood Drops" is one of the best episodes so far of "CSI". The screenplay is well built and resolved and it is great to see Dakota Fanning in an earlier work. My vote is eight.
Title (Brazil): "Gotas de Sangue" ("Blood Drops")
