Abstract

This chapter will introduce the reader to the scientific approach that is required to both comprehend and safely practice forensic podiatry. A thorough explanation of what is needed for evidential purposes, a discussion of class and individual characteristics, and a short explanation of the Bayesian approach to forming conclusions in the consideration of pedal evidence is provided. A discussion of evidence handling and the methodology that would be utilized which parallels that of other disciplines is given (including the ACE-V(R) – Analysis, Comparison, Evaluation, Verification, Reporting approach). Some basic information relative to the requirements necessary to be a credible expert witness in this field is also presented.

In the USA up to the mid-1950s and in the UK up to 1983, chiropody was the predominant title of the professional groups dealing with the health of the foot. The profession of podiatry developed from this basis, with both the term and practice of chiropody now fading into obsolescence.

See earlier comments under Sect. 2.2.4 noting that “physical evidence needs to be of reasonable quality.”
