Ron Moore, BS, JD answered:
This is Fred Zain. “He was employed as a trooper in the West Virginia crime lab based on a false resume. He claimed to have a chemistry degree from what is now known as West Virginia State University, when in fact he had an English degree and had received a “D” grade in the only two science courses he had taken” wikipedia. He gave false testimony in many cases in west Virginia and Bexar county, Texas.
Blogger’s note just to amplify not to correct: You can read the whole disgraceful tale of Fred Zain in the published investigation by the WV Supreme Court Investigation of Fred Zain
