Off-topic: You know what they never show you about these "forensic facial reconstructions"? How it comes out when they put it to the test. I think it serves to deliberately add to the psychosis that the vast majority of the population lives in.
This paper pretty much admits it:
So I must report that sadly by the end of the last course run in 2011, having developed a reliable system of working, we were unable to achieve anything like uniformity in all reconstructions and were a long way off achieving the Daubert standard which in my view will never be achieved.
Why they don't just show you some pictures, like, "We took a person who died, and handed some of these 'scientists' the skull and some DNA. Here are some photos of the living person and here's what they came up with." They avoid that because it's so ridiculously far off, would be my guess.
Of course, the next logical step will be to tell us that "AI" did it. Can't argue with that, can we?
