Wolf - Ooooh you have no idea. The errors are one thing, but it's the stuff they completely fabricate that really drives him crazy.
In the forensic community they call it the "CSI effect". It's a real problem when being in front of a jury, and they don't understand why you didn't pull out the "crimescenescanner2000" like they saw on CSI.

Yeah, you are going to have the person that processes the crime scene being the same person that processes the evidence in the lab (using magical powders, liquids & equipment that don't exist). Of course they are also investigating the suspect, and ultimately will be there for the arrest. You can almost hear the criminal saying "if it weren't for those meddling CSI guys, I would have gotten away with it!"

You have no idea of how many people really think it works that way.
