Interview with Peter Stout on The Watch
Please support Radley Balko's excellent reporting on criminal justice.
Over on The Watch, Radley Balko does deep-dive reporting on criminal justice matters. Recently, he interviewed Peter Stout, the Director of the Houston Forensic Science Center. Radley and Peter are both friends and colleagues, so, full disclosure. It’s an excellent read about someone who is trying their hardest, with an excellent team, to make good on the National Academy of Sciences National Research Council’s 2009 recommendation that forensic service providers be separate from law enforcement. Others tried but didn’t fare as well as Houston for a variety of reasons.
Head on over to The Watch and support Radley’s reporting. It’s a good investment.
