Science & Justice

"Science & Justice" is a British forensics journal.

One notable article was an analysis by Dr. Donald B. Thomas of the John F. Kennedy assassination. [ [http://www.forensic-science-society.org.uk/Thomas.pdf www.forensic-science-society.org.uk/Thomas.pdf] ] In it he disputed the conclusion of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) that the House Select Committee on Assassinations finding of a fourth shot in acoustical evidence was incorrect. A later article [ [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=pubmed&dopt=Abstract&list_uids=16686272 Science and Justice 45(4):207-26 (2005)] ] by Ralph Linsker, Richard Garwin, Herman Chernoff, Paul Horowitz and Norman Foster Ramsey, Jr. re-analyzed the acoustic synchronization evidence, rebutting Thomas' 2001 argument as well as correcting errors in the 1982 NAS report, while supporting the NAS report's finding that the sounds alleged to be gunshots occurred about a minute after the assassination. Followup Science and Justice articles have been published.
