#396 Wrongful Conviction: Junk Science - Footwear Comparison Evidence

About this episode

Even when done correctly, impression analysis of evidence, like shoe prints and tire tracks, is purely subjective. Many experts recognize its limitations. But one so-called “expert” in particular pushed the limits of this forensic discipline to produce horrific outcomes.

Josh Dubin speaks with Bill Osinski, journalist and author of “Guilty By Popular Demand.”

Kate Judson, Executive Director of the Center for Integrity in Forensic Sciences, updates Josh Dubin's Wrongful Conviction: Junk Science.
