You should go sit in on court cases before making such claims.
The "experts" often used in court cases are frequently not so expert as the seem. It's staggering some of the stuff that gets passed off as "evidence". Like "gun fingerprinting" - "experts", in court, will claim they can positively connect a case to a gun with extremely high accuracy - if you look into the research, it's practically useless.
When did you sit in on court cases? What did you observe in terms of the experts and their testimony when you did? Or maybe a better way to ask it is, how many times have you been in court and observed the proceedings?
I have family who are lawyers, I've been to court a few times, and I've had friends on both sides of the justice system. Not sure why you assume I'm just totally unfamiliar with these things.
