The dead mans identity established with a 99.62% certainty, “The highest probability the test could give”. Will everything boil down to total BS?

Its probably for the best anyway.

The harm done, whether by sloppiness, pride, or outright dishonesty and disdain for inconvenient truths, could take a generation or more to rectify — assuming there’s any attempt to do so in the near future. Utterly shameful.

Doctoring medical science data to “make a better story” in the scientific papers.

Disgusting just doesn’t say it.
