Maya Dukmasova wins September Sidney for Exposing Flawed Forensic Science in Chicago

Maya Dukmasova wins the September Sidney Award for her feature in Injustice Watch, “Fake science, faulty methods, misleading testimony,” an exposé of a rogue forensic lab in Chicago that used bogus testing methods to help convict people of driving under the influence of cannabis.  In 2017, 32-year-old Dwan Thompson was pulled over for driving 17 miles over the speed limit.
