I can mostly handwave the timing issue in csi-type shows but some of the leaps of logic and the magic-science are too much for me to suspend my disbelief.

Oh, yes. And the way that everything seems to work like fingerprints. Ears are unique, each bullet in each gun in unique, everything is unique and one tiny little bit can identify a person. No, not the way it works.

What bugs me is how this has affected real life cases. Either guilty people getting off because juries expected CSI-perfect forensic evidence or innocent people getting convicted because the prosecution claimed that forensic evidence was CSI-perfect when it wasn't.

Yeah. I love CSI Miami but when they said there was a database for ears (or palms or feet) I was just like, no. The number of fake databases or bones that just happen to have traceable parts is a little much to swallow at times.

Oh, and that episode of CSI New York where the former lab tech leaves a bite mark in a car and they use that to catch the serial rapist that killed her. Except no, while dental records can be used to identify a body, that does not mean that bite marks left at a scene of the crime work the same way.

Wasn't there an episode of CSI where they used like...the sound waves on clay to determine what was being said in a room? Or I am thinking of some kind of sci-fi thing?

That was CSI. They played some clay like a record and heard the murder. It was one of the last episodes I watched before I gave up on the show.

On this topic,
1. Ears are actually unique like fingerprints. And individual guns can leave unique marks in the bullets they fire. But no, there aren't databases for these things like fingerprints.
2. Part of the evidence that caught Ted Bundy was linking a bite mark in one of his victims to him, so if there was a strong enough bite impression left in a car that probably could help catch a criminal. But a lot of luck would be involved in that.
