Case Study Of Lindbergh Kidnapping
The Lindbergh kidnapping trial demonstrated the testimony by questioned document examiners. Later, in the proceedings over Howard Hughes’ alleged will, both sides depend on handwriting comparison experts. To some degree, such cases, questioned document examination proficiency experienced extensive use and judicial acceptance. Questioned document examiners are called on to present tasks to determine the sequence of strokes on a page and whether particular ink formulation existed on the suggested date of writing. However, the most common assignment performed is signature authentication: namely, deciding whether to accredit the handwriting on a document to a particular person.
