The forensic debut of the NRC's DNA report: population structure, ceiling frequencies and the need for numbers.

Genetica - 1 Jan 1995

Kaye D H

Abstract excerpt

This paper reviews judicial opinions that have discussed the April 1992 recommendations of a committee of the U.S. National Research Council concerning the statistics of forensic DNA profiles obtained with single-locus VNTR probes. It observes that a few courts have held 'ceiling frequencies' (as opposed to less 'conservative' estimates) admissible, but that the implications of the scientific criticisms of the...
