People want to believe that technology permits an answer to everything in a criminal case. That's just simply not the case. In the real world, we don't have DNA evidence available in 60 minutes or even a day.
We are going to regulate the type of performances going on.
The airport personnel is not going to have to worry about picking up trash.
We are mindful we are right near town.
Even though common sense tells us that a piece of evidence doesn't need to be examined, we'll usually examine it anyway. If we find clothing with a rust stain on it, we need to look to see if it might be blood. A prudent prosecutor is not going to take the chance.
It's becoming more prevalent because of these shows. They're based on reality, but they're distorted by Hollywood for dramatic effect. And it affects jurors. Jurors now have unrealistic expectations when they enter a case. I think they really believe we can get fingerprints off the head of a pin.
