Here is an uncomfortable truth. This man is in prison because of ableism.

This is why body language “experts” are grifters and charlatans.

This is why you shouldn’t convict people on a hunch, and why as a professional you don’t say shit you are unqualified to say.

Ableism kills.

No he's in prison because multiple witnesses testified they saw him shake and hit and scream at his child for crying, repeatedly.

Yes, this article is from 2016. Texas also has a strong law that allows throwing out "junk science". This case didn't make it through appeals because the forensic criteria that is suspect was such a small part of the evidence.
