Nobody hated on Nimoy for In Search Of.

That show opened with a firm disclaimer that it was all speculative.

Hancock does say his ideas aren't mainstream, but it's framed more like a conspiracy by academics to hide the truth.

This article doesn't explain exactly why the statistical anomaly should be inadmissable in court.

Were they asking for it to be inadmissible? My take was the RSS are implying the court allowed the jury to be misled as to its significance by not having a statistician on hand to explain it. It's almost an exact replay of what happened in the Lucia De Berk case, later overturned and since described as "the greatest miscarriage of justice" in the Netherlands. Worth a read if you're interested.
