By the time of its application in the U.S. military in 1991, mtDNA identification had been used in some international and domestic atrocities and murder cases. The most famous application is Mary-Claire King’s task in the late 1980s in identifying the victims of the Argentine “dirty war” at the request of the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo, an organization sharing many features with the NLF. In 1991, mtDNA saw its first use in the U.S. Mark Stoneking used the mtDNA from a skull to identify a girl lost for four years. An mtDNA test to trace the fate of Tsar Nicholas II’s families was also proposed in 1991. Encouraged by the success, on July 15, 1991, two AFDIL experts collected seven bone fragments in the coffin supposed to contain Maj.

Problem 143 The issue is whether Johnson was discharged by the alteration of the check and what reply should the bank’s attorney make. UCC §§3-115, 3-407, 3-406, and 4-401(d), addressed the alteration of instruments, whether an instrument is properly payable, the issue of discharge, negligence of an altered instrument and the good faith rule. It also addressed which party is liable when an instrument is altered and when is the bank is responsible to re-credit an account. Specifically, for this issue, I will use UCC §4-401 (d): A bank that in good faith makes payment to a holder may charge the indicated account of its customer according to: (1) the original terms of the altered item; or (2) the terms of the completed item, even though the bank knows the item has been completed un- less the bank has notice that the completion was improper.
Foua and Nao Kao had no way of knowing that Dan had diagnosed it as epilepsy, the most common of all neurological disorders. Each had accurately noted the same symptoms, but Dan would have been surprised to hear that they were caused by soul loss, and Lia's parents would have been surprised to hear that they were caused by an electrochemical storm inside their daughter's head that had been stirred up by the misfiring of aberrant brain cells” ( Fadiman 28). The Hmong strongly believed that Lia’s seizures were related to spirits. On the other hand, the doctors believed that Lia’s seizures were a result of a malfunction of the body and the only way to cure Lia was through medications.
Ayla’s conduct was ultimately influenced by her mental instability and is subject to the law of section 2 of the Criminal Code of Canada [hereinafter, Code], the fitness to stand trial, and 16(1), which is the defence of mental disorder. Though these two laws may appear to be similar with one another as they handle offenders with mental disorders, they have distinct features and case laws which sets them apart, providing crucial elements for fairness of trial regarding those who are Not Criminally Responsible on Account of Mental Disorder (NCRMD). At the end of the trial, Ayla’s disposition will be determined if she is found to be NCRMD by the Crown. Before one can plead for NCRMD, one must undergo the test for fitness to stand trial.
They say that it is better that ten guilty men go free then one innocent man be wrongly convicted. On a 60 Minute broadcast, reporter Lesley Stahl did a story regarding the wrongful imprisonment of an innocent man based off of a rape victim’s eyewitness identification. The man convicted of the crime was sentenced to life plus fifty years at the age of twenty-two for a crime he never committed. Eleven years later, his innocence was finally proven when DNA was able to exonerate and clear his name.
It It f It frustrates me what Dr. Anna Pou had to go through with the lawsuits of the Memorial Medical Center incident. As Healthcare professionals, being sued for making the rightful decision for the patient and the hospital is unjust. Healthcare professionals like Dr. Pou, have taken the Hippocratic oath, and one of the promises made within that oath is “first, do no harm”. Hospital’s should not be so quick to make such an important decision of pressing charges to their faculty; more trust should be placed in them. In addition, she made it clear her intentions were just to ‘‘help’’ patients ‘‘through their pain,’’ on national television.
His uncle was diagnosed with mania. He had a brother that was sent to a state mental institution and his sister was diagnosed with a "mental affliction". Ellen Fish had visual hallucinations. Three other relatives were diagnosed with mental illness. (Montaldo, 2017) .
Famed psychologist, Sigmund Freud, is perhaps one of the most iconic and influential figures in the sphere of faulty scientific reasoning to date. Though his theories and ideas remain to be integral parts of psychological culture, a large number of them have been wildly disproven by modern scientists, who cite Freud’s misuse of evidence (more specifically, case studies) as a contributing factor to the erroneousness of his claims. Case study, Freud’s preferred method of investigation, extensively examines a single group, person, etc. As a result of this, one cannot use a case study as a dependable source of information, nor can one generalize a case study to a broader population, despite Freud’s multiple attempts to do just that, in a variety of studies dealing with mentally-ill patients. It is outdated and unreliable; a source of evidence that is of little to no scientific value, yet, one that still endures to be staple among discredited scientists and groundless researchers alike.
