Forensic Odontology / bite mark video guide! Students watch the 30 minute video False Positive: When Forensic Science Fails. Free on YouTube!

This video guide prompts students to answer open ended questions about the case of Robert Stinson, a young man wrongly convicted of murder based on bite mark evidence. He spent more than 20 years in prison before being exonerated based on DNA.

The video includes a great discussion of flaws in bite mark evidence, and why it is so unreliable.

Full KEY included!

This video is the perfect follow up to the Bite Mark Evidence Activities, where students experience how difficult it is to make a dental match, and how easily a false match can be made.

Five Stars!
