What an X-Ray Report Actually Looks Like
This is from an actual X-Ray report — a drug possession case in Florida. The defendant's name and case number have been changed. Everything else — the documents, the contradictions, the findings — is real.

Weight Discrepancy Between Field and Lab
Field Report (Officer Martinez, pg 4): “White powder substance, approximately 28.3 grams”
Lab Report (Forensic Sciences, Report #FSL-2023-4471, pg 2): “Off-white powder substance, net weight 7.2 grams”
Cross-Reference: Evidence Room Intake Log (pg 1): “White crystalline substance, 24.1 grams”
Three documents. Three different weights. A 73% discrepancy between the highest (28.3g) and lowest (7.2g) measurement.
Framework: Chapman II Drug Forensic Analysis — weight discrepancies between field and lab exceeding 5% indicate potential evidence integrity issues. This discrepancy exceeds 73%.
Question for attorney:
“The field weight was 28.3g, the evidence room logged 24.1g, and the lab tested 7.2g. What happened to 21.1 grams between seizure and testing? Was packaging weighed separately at each stage? Were calibration records for each scale preserved?”
Miranda Timing Inconsistency
Arrest Report (pg 2): “Miranda rights administered at 14:32”
Booking Record (pg 1): “Defendant made voluntary statements at 14:15”

Targeted Questions for Your Attorney
Showing 3 of 43 questions from this report. Each includes what a solid answer looks like — and what a red flag answer looks like.
Q1 — EVIDENCE
“The field weight was 28.3 grams. The lab weight was 7.2 grams. What accounts for this 73% discrepancy?”
Basis: Weight Discrepancy Analysis (Red Flag #3)
Framework: Chapman II Drug Forensic Analysis
A solid answer: “The field weight included packaging. The lab weighs the net substance only. Here are the packaging weights documented at each stage.”
A red flag answer: “That's just how it works” or “The lab is what matters” without explaining the discrepancy.
Q2 — CHAIN OF CUSTODY
“Evidence was checked out of the property room for 96 hours with no documented purpose. Who had custody during this period?”
Basis: Chain of Custody Break (Red Flag #5)
Framework: Scheck Evidence Integrity Protocol
A solid answer: “The evidence was sent to an external lab for confirmation testing. Here is the transfer documentation.”
A red flag answer: “I'd have to look into that” or “The property room logs should show it.”
Q3 — CONSTITUTIONAL
“I made statements at 14:15. The arrest report shows Miranda wasn't read until 14:32. Does that timing create a suppression argument?”
Basis: Miranda Timing Inconsistency (Red Flag #7)
Framework: MacCarthy Suppression Methodology
A solid answer: “Yes, I've already drafted a motion to suppress. Here's our argument.”
A red flag answer: “Miranda doesn't apply here” without citing the specific exception.
Q4: Lab analyst certification and training records...
Q5: Field test reagent lot number and expiration...
Q6: Evidence room temperature and humidity controls...

What a C means: Your discovery has enough documentation to identify issues, but significant gaps exist — particularly in forensic documentation. These gaps are themselves findings.
How Every X-Ray Is Built
Every X-Ray is built the same way: document-by-document analysis using defense methodologies including Scheck evidence integrity protocols, Chapman II drug forensic analysis, and MacCarthy suppression methodology — plus 15 forensic detection patterns. Every report is reviewed by the operator before delivery. No finding ships without a specific document citation.
Common Questions
“$2,497is a lot of money.”
A single pretrial motion from a private attorney costs $2,500-$5,000. This analysis covers your entire discovery — every document, every contradiction, every question — for less than one motion. And your $2,497 is fully credited if you upgrade to The War Room.
“I don't have all my discovery yet.”
That's fine — and it's actually useful information. An incomplete discovery set is itself a finding. We document what's missing and generate questions about why it hasn't been provided.
“My attorney already reviewed my discovery.”
The question is whether that review produced specific, documented findings with page citations — and whether you saw them. If your attorney found a 73% weight discrepancy, they should be able to show you where.
“Is this legal advice?”
No. This is legal information and research — document analysis with specific questions. Your attorney makes strategy decisions. We make sure you have the information to ask the right questions.
Your documents contain information about your case.
The X-Ray finds it.
