Dr. Whitehurst and the FBI Lab Scandal (2017)
I remember the report absolutely demolishing the veracity of most forensic practices coming out, but has the field changed at all since then? Are hair samples and such still commonly used as evidence?My cynical side worries it's only gotten worse, as CSI made the job "sexy" attracting a pool of people that would not be overly concerned with the science part of forensics in the first place.
