How many uS citizens and others are rotting in prisons here and abroad due to the vaunted goobermint Sooper Troopers and their methods?

 

More I see happening, more I see why the Founders feared standing armies and agencies..

FBI's forensic tool was flawed, inquiry finds

Washington Post

 

"Hundreds of defendants sitting in prisons nationwide have been

convicted with the help of an FBI forensic tool that was discarded

more than two years ago. But the FBI lab has yet to take steps to

alert the affected defendants or courts, even as the window for

appealing convictions is closing, a joint investigation by the

Washington Post and 60 Minutes has found. The science, known as

comparative bullet-lead analysis, was first used after President

Kennedy's assassination in 1963. The technique used chemistry to link

crime-scene bullets to ones possessed by suspects on the theory that

each batch of lead had a unique elemental makeup." (11/18/07)

There was quite a good program on this on (I think) CourtTV (we call it Crime and Investigation Channel)

 

TBH, any decent metallurgist knows that in any ultra-lght (magnesium, aluminum) or ultra heavy (lead being a common one) impurities are NOT consistent across the crucible, let alone along a rod...
