Hey, Forensic Campers! I’ll be at the American Society of Crime Laboratory Directors next week in Birmingham, AL. I’m sure I have some fascinating and frisky posts after that. I’m teaching a half-day workshop on what business is your forensic lab really in, a deep-dive into your operation as a system to better understand your assumptions and business processes.
In the meantime, here’s some forensic clips to snack on:
Boston Police Crime Lab has been operating without a director for nearly 2 years (!!!)
San Diego County must face claims over ‘subpar’ crime lab that led to wrongful conviction
Troubled forensic lab’s DNA backlog blows out to 41,000 (Queensland, Australia) (!!!)
Queensland's forensics lab has reviewed less than two per cent of cases since inquiry
By the way…
