Publication Date:
January 20, 2010 Correction
Date: February 6, 2010 Correction: This editorial announced a study published by editors John Collins and Jay Jarvis that described physical evidence in a case involving the exoneration of Steven Avery in Wisconsin. Although the language used in the published study was correct, the editorial incorrectly stated that semen was deposited in the sexual assault for which Avery was exonerated. In fact, the biological evidence was not semen, but rather a pubic hair that was eliminated as having come from Avery. We regret this error and directly refer our readers to the study published by Collins and Jarvis in the 2009 journal of the Institute for the Advancement of Criminal Justice.
Publication Date:
July 16, 2008 Correction
Date: July 16, 2008
Correction: The
Nebraska news link titled "Crime lab chief cleared of wrongdoing"
was accompanied by the incorrect summary. This was replaced
with the proper summary shortly after publication. Correction: In this editorial, Crime Lab Report inadvertently implied that the Innocence Project (IP) was directly furnished with a series of questions to which they did not respond. In fact, the questions posed in the September 27, 2007 editorial were directed to journalists and elected officials as a recommended line of questioning when evaluating the IP's public policy agenda. The IP's decision to not respond to this editorial should not be construed as an avoidance of the questions.
