Justice Denied: The role of forensic science in the miscarriage of justice by David Klatzow exposes some of the major forensic disasters that have occurred over the past 100 years. If you are accused of a crime you did not commit, do you believe that justice will prevail in a court of law? Contrary to what television series like CSI and NCIS would have one believe, forensic science does not provide instant answers to impenetrable crimes; in reality, forensic science is neither clearcut nor easy to interpret, and practitioners are not all competent – as renowned forensic scientist Dr David Klatzow proves in this book. Justice, while age-old, is not always served when bad science plays a hand.
