Perhaps not surprisingly the contents of the report stimulated considerable discussion both in and out of the courts, among scientists as well as lawyers and not only in the USA. The following statement was recently issued by the DNA Commission of the International Society for forensic Haemogenetics and circulated to all members of their Society.
