also suggested that cross-examination questioning is detrimental to the accuracy of child witnesses, and children with low assertiveness and low self-confidence are more adversely affected through being challenged about their credibility by cross-examiners. Thus, cross-examination cannot tell us the truth when it significantly facilitates the change in the children’s responses regardless of whether they are truth-tellers or liars. Besides, Ellison revealed that the formal and technical…

often times are small or large bruises on the brain that indicate trauma and because the outside of the head is not injured the assumption is that the baby was shook hard enough to bruise the brain. The problem in most cases is that the medical examiners find it hard to believe that a person can physically shake a baby hard enough to cause this kind of bruising. According to Tara Haelle in an article on devising a better way to determine shaken baby syndrome, experts and pediatricians are…

On October 1, 1986, Tracy Gilpin, 15, disappeared and was reported missing in Kingston. Three weeks later, her body was found in a makeshift grave in Myles Standish State Forest. During the autopsy, the medical examiner ruled the cause of death a large fracture in the skull and the manner of death a homicide. At the time, however, the culprit went unidentified. For more than thirty years, her family went without answers. Though she was 16 at the time of her sister’s death, she grew up to become…

According to the Hispanic culture, more space between the speaker and the listener, which is what Anglos prefer, is considered rude or cold (Roseberry-McKibbin, 2014). So if a Hispanic student was setting to close to an Anglo examiner for example, the examiner may view this behavior as inappropriate and raise a red flag. Likewise, a situational bias may arise.

1,264 people have legally been killed and counting by our very own government asserts the Death Penalty Information Center. What are we teaching our children? Killing people is wrong, so we should kill murders. Does this make any sense? There are so many aspects of the death penalty that citizens do not know about nor understand. It is such a controversial topic and widely debated, mainly for moral reasons, yet the facts are rarely used as evidence. As I speak to you ladies and gentlemen in…

"Get the nose up, woman!" The flight examiner screeches in my ear. As I yank back on the yoke, I wonder did he just say that? There's no way. I must have misheard. "Girl, are you forgetting something? Take the carb heat out!" Okay. I definitely didn't hear wrong. For the next hour, I struggle to keep my cool as the examiner screams at me. I perform the requested maneuvers and try to drown out his excessive noise. From the moment I walked into his office, I knew this would be a difficult few…

however, the examiner stated that I was doing a great job and to keep doing what I was doing. The examiner thought that Gemma would adapt well to the preschool environment seeing that Gemma got along very well with the kids, and was unusually cooperative for her age. I found this most suprising because when Gemma was around 15 months old, she did not want me to leave her at the daycare. Seeing this at an early age, I would have thought Gemma would not be as social as she is. The examiner also…
