summary: "The Expert Witness Iowa Brady List is the definitive public-facing database of information about: police misconduct, State P.O.S.T. decertification, public complaints, use-of-force reports, citizen reports and more... Expert witness evidence is similar to eyewitness testimony because it involves an individual's verbal statements provided under oath. Instead of asking questions to someone who witnessed a crime, lawyers recruit experts in their field to answer questions related to a particular case. For example, a doctor may serve as an expert witness in a murder case because they can confirm facts or disprove theories about how a victim's injuries occurred."
