From the BBC: FBI admits forensic evidence errors in hundreds of cases.
When it is done intentionally it isn’t an ‘error’, it is a crime: perjury at a minimum. People were executed based on the lies created by the FBI’s analysis of the evidence.
Hundreds of cases will have to be reviewed, basically every case that used hair analysis performed at the FBI lab that resulted in a conviction.

Oil started flowing into the Gulf when the Deepwater Horizon exploded at 9:53PM CDT on April 20th, 2010. It stopped at 2:25PM CDT on July 15th after spewing 190 million gallons [4.5 million barrels] of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico.
The explosion killed 11 workers on the platform, and the oil and dispersants shortened the lives of countless others.
The CBC has a broad overview of the costs and a video report on conditions today.
The US corporate media, like the US government and BP think that people are too fragile to hear the truth about what happened and what is continuing to happen in the Gulf. A major portion of the oil that was spilled is sitting in cold water on the bottom of the Gulf waiting for a hurricane to bring it ashore.
