From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gerald Roche Lynch OBE FRIC DPH (1889–1957) was a British forensic scientist and public health analyst associated with several infamous murders as a medico-legal expert. An expert on poisons he appeared as an expert witness in multiple murder cases in the 20th century.

He was an important part of the oddly named "Bastardy (Blood Tests) Bill" of 1939, concluding that such tests could accurately prove paternity (the accuracy was much less than modern DNA testing).[1]
