A Forensic Scientist must provide accurate, reliable, impartial and unbiased interpretation of scientific forensic evidence to the court. But who checks?
Questions may be raised on the quality of evidence and if the opinion of the forensic scientist is scientifically sound and justified.
The quality and admissibility of evidence may and should be challenged to maintain the confidence and integrity of scientific results presented to the courts.
Forensic DNA Consultants can provide expert opinion on the quality of practices and processes used to obtain scientific data, interpretation of DNA profiles and evidence, ensure full disclosure is provided to the court and clarify misleading statements.
An independent, experienced Forensic DNA Consultant can identify mistakes and oversights.
