The Real "Bones" as Expert Witness
On the Fox series "Bones" forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan, a/k/a Bones, is brilliant at her profession, less so as an expert witness because she bores juries to death with her technical testimony. Kathy Reichs, the inspiration for Bones, ran into the opposite problem in a recent Ohio state court case, State v. Robinsion (Ohio App. 6 Dist. 2008). Check out Colin Miller's (John Marshall Law School (Chicago)) great post on EvidenceProf Blog for details: Cross Bones: Court Of Appeals Of Ohio Finds No Prosecutorial Misconduct Despite Scathing Comments Attacking Kathy Reichs a/k/a Bones In Nun Murder Cold Case.
