"Worthless" Forensic Technique

60 Minutes teamed up with the Washington Post to look into a forensic technique called “bullet lead analysis” that had been used by the FBI for over 30 years. The technique was recently found to be flawed. It wasn’t even scientifically proven. A former FBI chief metallurgist performed his own research on the testing and found that the technique isn’t “based on science at all, but rather had been based on subjective belief for over four decades.” He added, “It’s worthless as a forensic tool.” Many cases that used this technique as testimony are now being called in to question. At first, the Justice Department was reluctant to tell those who were convicted on this evidence that bullet lead analysis is flawed. But because of the story, the FBI will now “identify, review and release all of the pertinent cases.”

Here is the 60 Minutes story via the Washington Post:

You’ve probably heard about Rudy Giuliani misinterpreted and misrepresenting prostate cancer survival rates in England compared to the U.S. Here’s a fact check showing how incompatible the comparisons are. And below is Mark Day saying how Giuliani is talking out of his “arse” when it comes to prostate stats.

By Any Other Name

Last week, the New York Times reported that despite constant denials from the Bush Administration, torturing of detainees by U.S. interrogators was approved by the Justice Department. The article states the DOJ, “provided explicit authorization to barrage terror suspects with a combination of painful physical and psychological tactics, including head-slapping, simulated drowning and frigid temperatures.”

That’s not “torture”? The Daily Show’s Senior Interrogation Analyst Jon Oliver helps us find lost meaning in “torture” and other words.

Here Come The Judgments

AP (via MSNBC) reports a federal judge has ruled that two parts of the Patriot Act are unconstitutional. The parts in question are the ones that allow searches without probable cause. You know, Fourth Amendment to U.S. Constitution-foundation of our system of government-type stuff.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Supreme Court has agreed hear arguments on whether lethal injection is constitutional. The Reuters video is below.

Long-Winded, But..

By now, you’ve probably heard about that University of Florida student who was tased (or is it, “tasered”?) at the John Kerry event. This kid was definitely running off at the mouth and over-staying his welcome at the mic. But as you can see from the video below, it didn’t seem to warrant the cops tackling and tasing the guy. The top video below shows his questions (yes, there was more than one). The bottom video is a better view of the cops’ "answer" to his question. In that one, it appears one the cops was quick to pull his gun.
