Simon Cole Quotations

It shows that the author of the study says it doesn't have anything to do with reliability.

While we don't know how many fingerprint errors are caught in the lab and then swept under the rug or, worse, how many have still not been caught and may have resulted in a wrongful conviction we clearly need a full evaluation of the errors. The argument that fingerprints are infallible evidence is simply unacceptable.

Rather than blindly insisting there is zero error in fingerprint matching, we should acknowledge the obvious, study the errors openly and find constructive ways to prevent faulty evidence from being used to convict innocent people.
