Expert witness

From RationalWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

An expert witness is someone paid to appear in court to attempt to blind them with brilliance, or at least baffle them with bullshit, in the cause of the side which hired them.

Sometimes, they do good work... sometimes, they don't. This is irrelevant of whose "side" they are arguing for.

"I'm an expert witness. Why? Because I say I am." -- Satan, The Garden of Allah; Don Henley
