Nancy Grace said that any and all of the statements of these Forensic Scientists CAN be used at trial if they say anything different on the stand. Even Chris Pixley agreed. Wouldn't a live video clip of their adamant statements be powerful? If they said something different for money, I would think the Jury would catch on real fast that the testimony they were listening to was bought!!

I agree Lynn! Thinking back on all of Lee's appearances, towards the end of his last several, (since Defense team asked him aboard) he seemed to be twisting all of the leaks in favor of Snott...it was obvious to me that he would be accepting a big check for his opinion on the stand!

Yes, Wecht or someone like that might well look foolish (to a jury of normal intelligence, oh please God, not an OJ-style jury) if contadictory statements by him are played directly after his direct testimony!

As for Lee, I think he's so slippery, he never seems to really say much of anything substantial on TV--so it'd be hard to find a contadictory statement. I bet you the minute Lee gets his first call to appear as a talking head concerning a case like this, he's probably already thinking in terms of "what can I say tonight that won't come back and contradict me if one side hires me?"

That is indeed good news. I hope they find a way to use all the footage of Scaughty on TV, weeping crocodile tears and referring to his "missing" wife in the past tense.
