LATEST FORENSIC NEWS IN INDIA AND ACROSS THE GLOBE

The myth of CSI

 

In reality, many forensic science labs are corrupt or incompetent

THE CONTROVERSY about whether the state’s chief medical examiner falsified his credentials puts one more crack in our national myth about crime scene investigations. That myth, created by the CSI shows that have been a staple of TV for the past decade, portray crime labs as models of ultra-modern efficiency, where dedicated investigators use state-of-the-art (or even fictional) science to solve impossible cases in the course of an hour.

Anthony Zuiker Takes CSI to the Next Level 26

FORENSIC PROOF KILLER!!!

Zuiker explains that:

when you fly back and forth twice a week for ten years from Las Vegas to Burbank and work on the CSI franchise as your first television script there’s a lot of pain involved, so I’ve pretty much put the pain and pressure and stress into my art, which is things like Dark Origins and Dark Prophecy . . . I think in terms of Sqweegel the forensic-proof killer a lot of it has to do with law enforcement giving me a hard time about giving away secrets to people on CSI about getting away with things. It gave me the idea of “what if i made a forensic-proof latex suit for a villain who was a contortionist,” and see if CSI can catch that guy.
