@RiotLinguistics To repeat an old Twitter thread of mine:

Two oft-cited cases of science used in court don't look so "yay science" to me:
1. Andrew Deen, whose DNA-based rape conviction was overturned by Bayes theorem;
2. Joseph Pacely, acquitted of attempted rape after Elizabeth Loftus argued his accuser had false memories. [1/5]
