You haven't a clue about professional integrity (Doctor Peter Vanezis)
Peter Vanezis has no professional integrity, just an overblown ego and an ability to secure high profile cases which has now deserted him (he is no longer a Home Office approved pathologist)
In 1996 a deaf elderly woman was murdered in her home. Forensics teams found an impression on the patio door made by the assailant’s ear. The unfortunate Mark Dallagher was arrested and Dr Vanezis gave evidence in which he stated the ear print taken from the glass matched that of the accused, qualifying it as “
Unique” the same as a fingerprint would be. Based on this evidence Dallagher was imprisoned for life in 1998. On Appeal after the advancement of DNA it was proven that the ear print did not match the DNA profile of the convicted man and his conviction was quashed and in 2004 he was released after serving seven years in jail.
Vanezis gave evidence in relation to the evidential worth of ‘ear-prints’ that consisted of the statement “My conclusion was that it was the closest match for the overall fit of the prints. That is both left and right. All I can say is that bearing in mind that we have left and right ear prints and with the paucity of knowledge etc., I am prepared to go so far as to say that there is a remote possibility .... That they may have been left by someone else, but it is remote. .... I am of the firm opinion that it is very likely to be the same person, (Dallagher) but I cannot be 100% positive.”
In fact, his conclusion was entirely incorrect and an innocent man was convicted of murder, serving seven years in jail before the error was corrected. Thus, we might reasonably conclude that Vanezis was reckless about the possibility that his testimony was false and he has a track record of involvement in assisting the police with the locking up of innocent men.
