:morning:
There have been several case convictions on the precise evidence of forensic podiatry analysis so it is good to see this article. Possibly the most infamous case was the one involving Hollywood star, O J Simpson and the bloody footprint from his loafers. Greg Coyle in NZ was called as expert witness in a nasty murder trial a few years ago involving a gang killing and was able to present convincing evidence from foot prints in the sand which pointed to the likely culprits. In the UK Vernon Lever and Bill Kerr are two forensic podiatry luminaries in the courtroom whose expertise is regularly called upon.
There was a case in Australia not too long ago when the violent bank robber on the way to the scenes of the crime stood on a dog's dodo. Usually this might be considered lucky but alas for him the foul smelling addition to his shoes alerted the olofactory senses of all and conveniently left a tell tale gait pattern with for the law enforcement officers to follow. He was apprehended soon after. No ****! ;)

Hi
Thanks Newsbot. Think its clear that my days of Brad Pitt impersonation are over now. :pigs:
As with all news interviews there is a limit to what is presented by the TV on the day. There was considerably more than the knee bowing involved and more than what was indicated in the interview. In terms of CCTV analysis in the UK, Haydn Kelly also provides this service.
Couple of other Pods in the UK who are involved in the Pod side of Forensics include Dr Wesley Vernon and a colleague Harry (sorry cannot recall his last name). Their work strikes me as interesting as they are collecting data on shoe fit to foot. This technique is very simple in terms of data collection and I have wondered if the Arena folks could help by providing world wide data.
Cheers

Humble apologies, I meant Wesley Vernon. Age is a terrible thing.

Should this kind of info be released?
It means that when Kevin is fleeing the seminar with Ed having planted 200lbs of semtex under the stage he'll know he can rule himself out of the enquiry by wearing a pair of propriceptive insoles on the way from the scene...
Nice one ian :drinks

Hi,
At 00.15 on Tuesday 15th April I set the sleep timer on my radio alarm to radio five live ( sad or what?)
I was drifting off, having just scored the winning goal in the European Cup final I was just about to take the trophy from "Twirly",s finely manicured hands when I was jolted back to reality by the presenters telling the story of a man who walked like "John Wayne" being convicted on CCTV evidence with the help of a gait analysis expert witness Podiatrist Ian Linane and DNA results.
They started sniggering and invited the listeners to ring in with amusing job titles.
Perhaps Ian should apply for an Equity Card.
What's amusing about "Gait Analyst"

Alphonse Bertillon was a 19th century French law enforcement officer and biometrics researcher who created anthropometry, an identification system based on physical measurements. He died a lunatic.

Hi Bob
Thanks for the concern. I have done my best to deflect attention away from me to the way podiatry is already involved in Forensic activity e.g. shoe to foot fit, use of patient records etc.
Name wise he already had the details the minute the report was provided to the defence solicitors so anonimity is not possible anyway.
Kevlar tunics from now on.
Cheers
