I spent the five happiest years of my life in a morgue. As a forensic scientist in the Cleveland coroner’s office I analyzed gunshot residue on hands and clothing, hairs, fibers, paint, glass, DNA, blood and many other forms of trace evidence, as well as crime scenes. Now I'm a certified latent print examiner and CSI for a police department in Florida. I also write a series of forensic suspense novels, turning the day job into fiction. My books have been translated into six languages.
I'm sorry but I have not heard of that case.
I'm not aware of that case.
I’m sorry but my job has absolutely nothing to do with auditing voting machines. I have zero expertise in that area.
I'm not familiar with those terms. Sorry I can't help!

How come it often takes years to figure out that a kid is dyslexic?
Nope, not planning on it!
If the agency you apply to accepts it, then yes. Our agency just asks for at least an associate's degree but doesn't specify the subject, so you would qualify. What an agency is looking for beyond any degree is up to them. They might want only those with forensic training, or they might prefer someone who's had laboratory training even if not specifically in forensics over someone who had forensic training but no hands-on lab work. The only way to know is to call them and ask. Best of luck to you!
Again, I'm not an expert in public safety policy, so I don't know any more about the implications than you do.
