The fact that this was ever used in a courtroom is disturbing, but before we start collectively clutching our pearls, remember that authors are selling clicks, and it us the nature of articles like these to overstate the problem. I am less concerned by the obvious nonsense like this, than I am about the far more dangerous nonsense that comes from legit, credentialed, FBI-endorsed “scientists” which a rational, informed, well intentioned judge or juror might give serious weight, (like bite marks, blood splatter, profiling, etc.)
