Episode 130 - Universal Language for Testimony and Reports

Glenn and Eric take a look at the newly proposed draft documents from the Department of Justice. These documents seek to provide universal language for testimony and reports for multiple forensic disciplines. The good news is that there is nothing overly shocking or crazy in the latent print language. Examiners should provide comments to the DOJ, but the main content of the documents is in line with language from the past seven years from SWGFAST and the IAI.
