flag Oregon proposes targeted review of convictions using discredited forensic evidence like bite mark analysis.

flag Oregon lawmakers have introduced a revised bill aimed at addressing wrongful convictions, focusing specifically on cases involving discredited forensic methods like bite mark analysis and hair microscopy. flag The proposed legislation would create a more targeted process for reviewing convictions where such flawed evidence played a key role, limiting eligibility to cases where the forensic technique has been widely rejected by the scientific community. flag The bill seeks to balance accountability with practical constraints, avoiding broad expansions of the process while still providing relief to those wrongfully imprisoned.
