From New York Post (caution: tabloid):
A top forensic scientist who testified in OJ Simpson, JonBenét Ramsey and Phil Spector’s cases made a shocking deathbed confession in a bid to clear his name.
Lee, who died on Friday at age 87, was renowned for work involving blood spatter analysis and crime scene reconstruction, and provided key evidence in numerous trials through the 80s. “[The Pressure] obviously got to him and he got to the point where he couldn’t live up to that image. So, he just kept giving answers without doing examinations,” claimed Turvey, who had played a role in proving Henning and Birch’s innocence. At the time of the decision, Lee insisted to reporters, “In my 57-year career, I have investigated over 8,000 cases and never, ever was accused of any wrongdoing. This is the first case that I have to defend myself.” However, an investigative team claim they have uncovered at least six instances of Lee contributing to innocent people losing their freedom.
