  • Blood spatter analysis isn’t quite as nonsense as the rest.

    If blood is found underneath an object, you know that the blood got there first, and the object second. If you find a drop of blood among a bunch of fine mist, you may be able to predict that the fine mist is blood from a victim after a gunshot, while the drop might be from someone else, possibly the perpetrator.

    Of course there are other observations which are misinterpreted, but the fact remains that blood spatter follows the laws of physics; therefore, it is possible to discover factual information from observing it.



  • Blood spatter analysis isn’t quite as nonsense as the rest. There are definitely factual conclusions that can be made based on where blood is found and how it is distributed or shaped.

    Polygraph tests are an interrogation tool. While the “results” they produce directly are nonsense, they can be used as a lever to pressure a suspect to confess to a crime - with disregard as to whether they actually committed said crime. People who undergo polygraphs are also known to unload new information immediately after the “test” is over.

    Remember, police are allowed to lie to you; you are not allowed to lie to the police. Shut the fuck up. Lawyer.
