They definitely exist, as this firm offers forensic sociologists available as expert witnesses http://www.roundtablegroup.com/…/…sicSociology.html Bates College offers a course in it: The course considers the use of sociological data and their interpretation in decisions made by courts and other agencies of the judicial system and the role of the sociologist as an expert witness. Areas considered may include profiling in law enforcement and corrections, unlawful discrimination, spousal abuse, pornography, toxic torts, and premises liability. Emphasis is given to the relationship between the standards of validity and reliability in sociology and the rules of evidence. http://abacus.bates.edu/catalog02-03/SOC.html And Google turns up over 1.3 million hits.
