Abstract
- We are not juxtaposing bias and objectivity here intentionally; instead, we are hoping to illustrate how there are differences between I objectivity i and I neutrality i and that recognizing these differences can allow forensic science practitioners to engage with their communities in productive ways that are separate from their scientific analyses and professional responsibilities. Recently, there has been some debate in the forensic science community around issues of importance to all forensic science professionals, that of objectivity and neutrality in our work.
