Or even other TV. S2 of HBO’s Perry Mason reboot had Paul Drake (a defense investigator, for those unfamiliar with the franchise) use ballistics matching to get Perry to force confession from his own defendants and then cop a plea. They showed Drake acquiring and using the entire stock of illicit “rental” guns for his analysis to figure out if a gun rented by the defendants fired a bullet.
I'm rapidly coming to the point that forensic labs should be permanently decoupled from law enforcement.
Superb, thorough, convincing. Thank you.
It's disturbing to discover how reluctant prosecutors are to give up maliciously working the tools of power.
Wonder when we see the questions raised on crime lab tv? 🤔

Looking forward to finding out if any forensic science is real as I stare at my own fingerprints. Those are real, right?
