Building More Reliable Forensic Sciences (Part One) | Justice Today

Описание: #JusticeTodayNIJ #forensicsciences #scientificmethod
The scientific basis of several aspects of forensic evidence was first called into question by the 2009 National Research Council report. That report had an immediate impact on law enforcement, crime labs, courtrooms, and the broader #scientificcommunity.
David Stoney, Chief Scientist and head of Stoney Forensics in Chantilly, VA, and Greg Dutton, program manager and physical scientist with NIJ’s Office of Investigative and Forensic Sciences, join host Jim Dawson to discuss the concerted effort in many fields of forensics — #ballistics, trace evidence, #fingerprints, and more — to improve the science underlying #forensicevidence in the wake of the 2009 report.
