It is long been known and accepted in the forensic science and society in general that no two fingerprints are alike. The reliability of fingerprints as a means of identification has been ingrained in society for over a hundred years, but are they really reliable? Did you know that there is a grand movement to discredit fingerprints in an attempt to hijack forensic science? Why? To hijack forensic science for their own agenda? For notoriety? What is the truth? What are the facts and the fiction with regard to the reliability of fingerprints? Fingerprints are the gold standard in forensic science, even more so than DNA. So why is there so much controversy about the uniqueness of fingerprints? Why are they questioning an established and proven science? A cottage industry has sprung up in the attack on forensic science. Some lawyers and some academics have attacked fingerprints with an agenda, sometimes hidden, to degrade fingerprints, call into question their reliability, taint jury pools, and shake the confidence of forensic experts to devalue their testimony in court. Defense lawyers want to win cases, and academics, wanting to prove a postmodernist point by attempting to apply philosophy to a biological science. Uniqueness exists in the world; these denialists would have you doubt that reality. Written by three retired fingerprint experts with a combined 90 years' experience, 'The Hijack of Forensic Science' analyzes every aspect of these attacks and exposes the agenda, faulty references, leaps of logic, and philosophical muses used by these perpetrators to hijack forensic science.
