    Clinical forensic psychology involves assessment and treatment of persons involved in the legal process, or consultation on related matters.

    Norman G Poythress, Norman Poythress et al.ARTICLEAmerican Psychologist1993

    In 1989, an explosion aboard the USS Iowa killed 47 sailors. The Navy attributed the explosion to the intentional suicidal acts of Gunners Mate Clayton Hartwig, a conclusion supported primarily by an "equivocal death analysis" conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The U.S. House of Representatives Armed Services Committee (HASC) was highly critical of the FBI's report and the Navy's conclusions, in part because of the peer revie…
