Bad Justice, it's everywhere, it's everywhere
An article at Slate is basically about when a problem with the judicial system occurs, it's usually something which has been going on for awhile. The biggest problem then is everyone saying, not my fault/not my problem/not my mess, so nobody cleans it up. Nobody tries to correct the damage, or stop future damage. They talk about the ongoing problem in California with jail house informants, then two instances they cite are in Massachusetts.

That's so fucked up. How do you fix it? If you release them all, you know a large percentage of them are bad guys who will harm society. But with that many cases, it would take years to re-try all of them.
Maybe you make all of them eligible for parole today and let the parole boards decide who is safe to set free. |

Fix what? The symptoms? That is easy. Every case must be reviewed. No way around that.
Problem is not yet discussed. 85% of all problems are directly traceable to top management. Those are where prison sentences are required. That is why these symptoms exist. Always go after the source and reason for symptoms. Never just cure symptoms. |

Now that these 2 technicians have been found legally guilty,
I would think any innocent inmates would be justified in filing $$$$ lawsuits against the State and also the specific lab technicians. I remember there was a big stink in the FBI lab about an "expert witness" who was doing much the same thing of (falsifying) identification of patterns of tooth bite marks. Likewise, FBI and Police lab technicians' testimony on identification of hair and fiber analyses are very likely inaccurate and/or false. |

See, that's why they should execute them right away, the next day, to avoid messes like this.

Haven't read Lamp's link, but the report I heard basically said the whole science of it was deeply flawed. They were offering as concrete evidence something that is shaky at best even as an indicator.
