SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The goal of the Forensic Science Discipline Review (FSDR) of testimony is to advance the use of forensic science in the courtroom by understanding its use in recent cases and to facilitate any necessary steps to ensure that expert forensic testimony is consistent with scientific principles and just outcomes. In order to accomplish this goal, the Department is planning a Departmentlevel review of forensic testimony by Department personnel beginning with an examination of FBI testimony. The Department proposes to review and evaluate trial testimony provided by FBI forensic examiners in several forensic disciplines in state and federal cases for a five-year period (2008–2012). All cases in which an FBI examiner testified in these disciplines—and for which a transcript can be obtained—are proposed to be reviewed. Which disciplines will be reviewed and the order in which disciplines will be FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: PO 00000 Frm 00065 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 41351 reviewed has not been determined, in part because the development of the FSDR testimonial standards, against which the testimony of Department personnel will be compared, is ongoing. The Department is undertaking this review because it is good management to conduct macro-level program reviews and not because of known or suspected problems with particular forensic science disciplines. The draft methodology proposes specific methodological decisions to evaluate testimony and seeks comment on additional issues. All elements in the draft methodology are subject to revision and comment is invited. Posting of Public Comments: To ensure proper handling of comments, please reference ‘‘Docket No. OLP 158’’ on all electronic and written correspondence.
