The Wilson Murder: Forensic Experts at
Odds
This program presents the effects on judicial verdicts of
conflicting interpretations of evidence. When a suspect was arrested
for beating a doctor to death, his confession implicated the
doctor’s unfaithful wife and her sister. At the trial of the alleged
perpetrator and the victim’s wife, a medical examiner’s testimony
regarding the murder weapon contributed to their conviction.
However, an expert witness at the sister’s trial successfully
contradicted those findings, leading to her acquittal. (24 minutes)
