The Opinionated Bastard

If you go to this story you'll find a link buried to these two documents:

MIcheal Matley

James Pierce

So the first one documents the signatures, but not the documents themselves, as has been pointed out before. Of course, having the correct signature on a photocopy is meaningless, since its trivial to copy a signature from another document onto the copy.

The second one documents the signatures too, but goes on to say:

In regard to the balance of the typed-written photocopied questioned documents, the same typed-face designs are strongly similar to corresponding samples that indicate the same typed-face existed prior to the date in question on the photocopied documents.

In my professional opinion, with what I know and have examined based on the photocopied questioned documents, the documents in question are authentic.

Uh, that's really bad English. The CBS expert can't even write? Beyond the bizarre phrasing and grammar, its typewritten, and typeface, not typed-written and typed-face. Something I would expect a "Forensic Document Examiner" to know. Strange that they would go all the way to Newport Beach California from New York to verify some documents...
