Sadly, predictions of the future rarely turn out to be accurate. But seriously,folks... The future...? As with most forensic fields, there are two futures, the legal and the technological. As for legal, I think all the related comparative forensic disciplines will gain more complete and detailed accepted standards of practice. I think there will be more attention to providing for defense-side expert consultation, which will shift the bulk of legal argument to arguing specific results and less wrangling over bias and procedure. That's not a small thing. Most results are unchallenged on account of most attorneys knowing little of the field. As for technological, detection and enhancement will continue to become more sophisticated, and DNA recovery from the same evidence will become more important. | ||
