RICHMOND —
Eastern Kentucky University’s Fire and Safety Engineering Technology Program will be in the national spotlight during a segment tentatively set to air on ABC-TV’s “20/20” on Friday at 10 p.m.
A crew from the news magazine program was on the EKU campus recently in preparation for a segment on cases where people claim to have been charged or convicted of arson on the basis of what some experts call junk science.
The crew spent a day at the EKU College of Justice and Safety’s test burn site near the Ashland Building looking at how some artifacts of a fire could be viewed as indicators of arson.
