I was determined not to be snookered again.&#8221; <br>&#8220;It&#8217;s a problem, especially in criminal cases, having judges and lawyers who aren&#8217;t well-versed in science deal with scientific evidence, but I&#8217;m hopeful because the education is improving.&#8221;<br>&#8220;Cognitive bias of examiners and labs is a constant issue in forensic testing.  More independence is needed.&#8221;<br>&#8220;New Mexico&#8217;s hybrid system of judicial selection is better than before but still needs improvement.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed
