Im screwed....pssst slore dont look up, you're going down 

[Curly]

I just got here - can someone tell me what her expertise is in?

Forensic botony is one of the things the court accepted her as an expert for. There was one more thing, but I don't remember what.

She's an expert in boring.

i found the excerpt from Dot Simm's bio to be amusing...

 ::snipping2::

She can be retained to research defense experts, prepare notebooks for cross examination and, in some cases, conduct the cross examination herself. In some cases, with proper notice, she is available to instant message suggested questions to lead counsel as he or she conducts the cross examination in real time while Dorothy listens to the testimony of the defense expert. Defense counsel must be made aware of her presence on the record, however.


Taking a deposition via internet, watching a witness through Skype

She devotes an average of 8 hours per week to assisting other lawyers at no cost in pro bono cases. She lives part time on a sailboat and conducts depositions via the internet. She is licensed in the state of Florida, US District Court - Northern District of Florida, US District Court and the Middle District of Florida.

Rather significant, would have taken months & if moved the plants would have shown to be broken off

so really all she can give her expert opinion on would be to eliminate that turtles chewed on the bone?

Good morning, everyone!!

  Justice for Caylee

NO NO NO   a thesis work does not make you an expert as a botanist

You are right. A thesis is written at the conclusion of your master's degree program. A dissertation is written at the conclusion of your doctoral program. Doctoral students refer to themselves, sometimes as: PhD, ABD...All But Dissertation.

Poor thing is confused.  This is pitiful.  It's like she still wants to be in the prime of her career but time isn't so kind.

O Dr Bock give it up, you've joined the National Association of Quackadoodles for Cash

[NickandNora]

Never dealt with decomposing body in her experiments?

No she hasn't. She has with skeletons that had been in place for several years. She has looked at evidence like that.

Did you see the plants or roots grow through the skeleton?

Yes.

In the deposition...does she recall answering same question and she said no. No bones.

She says not in teaching but saw a crime scene and observed skeleton there for ten years.

[StarMonkey]
