I disliked both Dr. Samuels and Alyce LaViolette and have said as much many times. At their respective ages, both were set to retire and accepted this gig to make some money and get some time in the national/international spotlight of the very high profile case of Jodi Arias. That said, their reputations have been forever tarnished because of their insistence on believing - or pretending to believe - their conniving, cunning, lying, manipulative client.
Dr. Samuels website was taken down shortly after he testified, and it's doubtful that he will ever be asked to testify as an expert witness in the future. Reviews of LaViolette's newly-published/revised book have been scathing, her once highly regarded reputation is likely gone for good, and she will probably not be invited to speak on behalf of victims of domestic violence. Perhaps these two expert witnesses sought to win a big payday by testifying for Jodi Arias, but they lost their good names and stellar reputations. In that regard, they are victims of the convicted murderess. :moo:
