@ZellnerLaw: The SILENCE is deafening. #Makingamurderer2

TL;DR Her tweeting is theater. I would find transparently properly administered BF quite compelling, though I'd then feel forced to investigate it even more deeply.

I would be surprised if any of those she names agree to be brain fingerprinted.

Even if they do, any tests won't settle things in the court of public opinion, and probably not in court either.

This is true regardless of the technique's scientific merit and the quality of its administration and analysis in any particular case.

I think KZ's tweet is primarily theater. I doubt she expected anyone to take her up on her offer though she would be happy if any did.

The science for this kind of thing needs to be really solid and I suspect it isn’t - although I haven’t looked into it thoroughly yet.

It's the sort of thing that would take me months of full time study to draw a really strong conclusion about but I have spent maybe 10 hours researching it and it currently looks solid enough to me that I can see why it's been ruled admissible in US courts.

The wikipedia pages on the P300, P3a, and P3b ERPs seem to correspond reasonably well to the papers I've read. The claim that P300 is a reliable and ubiquitous response seems valid.

The rationale for P3-MERMER seems plausible. I don't know whether to trust the papers on it by Farwell, and have read some scathing critiques by his scientific peers, but I've not yet found the latter persuasive that Farwell is entirely off his rocker. Indeed, they seem to confirm there's scientific merit to some of his work, and some merit to the principles behind his approach to applying the science, despite their discomfort with his administration of his tests and presentations of his results in some of his papers.
