Expert court witnesses in bias storm | Mail Online
Sam Marsden reported this in a recent U.K. Daily Mail posting:
"Court expert witnesses will give evidence in defence of paying clients even if they have been told that they are guilty, an investigation found. Undercover reporters filmed specialists who regularly give professional testimony in court apparently flouting strict rules on remaining impartial and independent. Two handwriting experts wrote reports casting doubt on whether a threatening letter was penned by their client – despite being told he was the author."
