Evidence & Investigation
Ten questions on forensic method, each stating the limits of the technique as well as its use.
About this topic
Forensic science is far more cautious in practice than its screen version suggests, and the caution is the important part. This quiz covers the main disciplines and what each can actually demonstrate, along with the procedural rules that decide whether evidence survives challenge in court. It concerns method rather than particular cases. The explanations state limitations explicitly, since overconfidence in forensic evidence has produced documented wrongful convictions.
