Dr. Henry Lee is my favorite criminalist and forensic scientist. He is a brilliant doctor who goes the extra mile to solve homicide cases. Dr. Lee is now retired but I am sure he is sorely missed by his colleagues. His expertise, experience, knowledge and dedication to solve homicide cases using forensic science, earned him the respect among his peers. Enjoy your retirement Dr. Lee, to the fullest. May you be successful and be happy in your future endeavors whatever they might be. Thank you for all you did finding justice for the victims and their families.

[@tonyc7301]

Dr. Lee is a brilliant scientist, but he has lost much of the respect he had due to his “highest bidder” attitude towards testifying in trials. He gave embarrassing testimony in the O.J. Simpson trial, and the staircase trial, all because the defense team paid for his loyalty. Just read the transcripts of his testimony from those trials. At the OJ trial, he testified that he found foot prints from a supposed second killer. The FBI had their forensic expert follow behind Dr. Lee, and found out that the foot prints were actually left by the workmen who laid the concrete sidewalk years earlier. You could actually feel the sides of the footprint with your fingers. For someone like Dr. Lee to give testimony like that, that even a child would know is BS, is just far beneath him. Sorry, but I don’t have any respect for someone who gets on the stand to testify for someone who is obviously guilty, and he has done that many times.

[@forensicfilesfiles]

Despite the thumbnail image shown, Dr. Lee is not featured in this episode.

[@zuzellogan5613]

@@tonyc7301 wrong answer and you are wrong again. Dr. Lee told detectives about a shoe print that didn’t belong to Simpson nor Rob Goldman but the Los Angeles investigators did a very poor job in that case; they all walked over that crime scene contaminating the evidences, I saw it completely and they only concentrated on OJ Simpson rather than looking at those prints that Dr. Lee had said; and the prosecutors also failed miserably to prove their case. That trial was a complete disaster 100%. It was a Roman Circus for all I care. Very disgraceful that the “race card” was used to acquit a murderer whoever he or she was. Dr. Lee was correct 100% and his reputation as a great forensic criminalist is intact and speaks for himself. I love the man and had the utmost respect for him as well as ALL his colleagues have, and his students. Wake up and smell the coffee. The reputation of Dr. Henry Lee is not tarnished at all: it is only in your sick imagination.

His mother is an amazing woman. Angel, didn’t deserve pain like that. I’ll wish it for her. He needed to put down for that. Sleepy time. Dangerous person.

Tommy was the type of man you want your friend to date. What a good man.

RIP tommy

[@jerry-xi4gi]

why is it always the same type of perp, doing the same crimes, for the same reasons, its sickening, get a job, get a life, and leave others alone !!

Tommy sounded like such a beautiful soul. I will never understand why the lord calls the most beautiful souled people home way too soon. He would have been an amazing husband and father one day and never got the chance because someone thought their life and getting high was more important than 3 people's lives. Luckily the other 2 still live and breathe to see today but not without a real life nightmare you know they think about daily.

As a nearly 40 year old fully disabled combat veteran who’s seen enough of the world and of people, I’ll say this much….The fact is, there isn’t a “god”, WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR OWN ACTIONS AND INACTIONS!! The fate we suffer is in THIS LIFE….not some other one later after we die!!
