Are you referring to the guy that actually did the autopsy? I enjoyed him. He was precise. Exact. He obliterated distractions. He gave no credence to fantasy, but acknowledged the possibilities. He also was very aware of human psychology and how it impacts testimony, thereby analyzing his own failures to remember things (as other witness claim to) and his own ability to err and change opinions (which are not facts).

He may not be everyone's cup of tea, but he was no tool
