The word forensic comes from the Latin word forensis public to the forum or public discussion argumentative rhetorical belonging to debate or discussion. From there it is a small step to the modern definition of forensic as belonging to used in or suitable to courts of judicature or to public discussion or debate. Forensic science is science used in public in a court or in the justice system. Any science used for the purposes of the law is a forensic science. The forensic sciences form a vital part of the entire justice and regulatory system. Some of the different divisions or disciplines of forensic science have become identified primarily with law enforcement an image enhanced by television and movies. This is misleading because forensic scientists are involved in all aspects of criminal cases and the results of their work may serve either the defense or the prosecution. The forensic scientist's goal is the evenhanded use of all available information to determine the facts and subsequently the truth. The forensic scientist's role in the civil justice arena is expanding. Issues range from questions of the validity of a signature on a will to a claim of product liability to questions of whether a corporations complying with environmental laws and the protection.
