If you have a question about this talk, please contact INI IT. This talk has been canceled/deleted Not enough meaningful communication is taking place between the scientific community and the judiciary. Usually scientists start the dialogue by pointing out to judges and prosecutors that they utterly lack the skills needed to find the truth in criminal cases. Remarkably, not all judges and prosecutors are happy to accept this message right away. To make things worse, they are told that they can only cure their ignorance by swallowing some very distasteful medication, brewed from such dark ingredients as numbers and probability theorems. Naturally they tend to show a certain resistance. This leads some experts to the conclusion that the judiciary is unwilling and/or unable to listen to reason.
