Do analytical fallacies plague crime scene investigators?
Most definitely. Deductive assumptions are made everyday at crime scenes. Often investigators, prior to a thorough investigation, make a presumption of guilt about a suspect, which thereafter guides the way he/she investigates the crime scene and collects physical evidence. Godwin Forensic Consultancy can conduct a detailed examination of the crime scene and police reports to look for any mental errors and assumptions made by investigators. A myopic view could lead to evidence being overlooked, which may exonerate a defendant.
