No, I don't think you are. We've talked plenty about testimony, and about the degrees to and cases in which it is/isn't useful. If you are trying to pretend after maybe a hundred pages of text in several threads that you don't have a particular motivation, then I'm gonna just state straight up that I believe you are lying. I'm not just saying that to be mean, but I'd say there's now a substantial body of evidence supporting this claim: your persistence and vehemence on the issue far outweigh what would be expected from someone with an academic interest in this part of jurisprudence.
If you had a general interest in evidence or in law, you would have made a dozen other threads about ethics, philosophical issues with determinism and free will and punishment, about what science is and how it should be done, and so on.
