In the old days, you would have one lawyer to handle everything: speeding tickets, buying a house, contracts, litigation, real estate, copyrights, leasing, entertainment, intellectual property, forensic accounting, criminal offenses... the list goes on. Now, you have to have a separate lawyer for each one of those categories!
If you want to be an anthropologist, you need to study physical anthropology specialized in bones. If you want to be a forensic chemist, get a degree in chemistry. Do you want to do DNA work? Get a degree in microbiology. And do well. Study hard and go to graduate school.
I grew up with J. Edgar Hoover. He was the G-man, a hero to everybody, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation was the big, feared organization. He was ahead of his time as far as building up forensic evidence and fingerprinting. But he took down a lot of innocent people, too.
Certainly going back to Sherlock Holmes we have a tradition of forensic science featured in detective stories.
In reality, those rare few cases with good forensic evidence are the ones that make it to court.
I didn't invent forensic science and medicine. I just was one of the first people to recognize how interesting it is.
I see my studio like a laboratory, where I work like an investigator - it's almost forensic. I love the discovery process in painting.
I don't necessarily have friends who are forensic scientists, but I have tons of friends who are cops.
All work and no play make any forensic pathologist a dull boy.
I think if I weren't so squeamish, I would have been some sort of forensic analyst. And I can't do anything with a microscope, because then I start thinking about the world of germs around us.
