I am not real sure what determines being certified. First I would think they would have to have a certain degree in entomology.

Dusek did not challenge the credentials of either entomolist as expert witnesses, so their testimony must be accepted as that of a knowledgable person in that field and if Dusek cannot find another expert or two to contradict the two that have testified, the jury must accept as true the evidence presented by the two experts so far. That being the case, the jury would have no choice but to acquit DW.

I did not question whether they were expert witnesses or not. Rheo made the statement that there were only 9 entomologists. I corrected him and said that there were only 9 certified entomologists, of which Faulkner was not one of the nine certified. Just because he isn't certified doesn't mean he is not an expert witness.
