As the managing partner of a competitor firm of Rinkus, I find the allegation to be suspect. In the history of our company doing distaster response investigation we have never been asked to alter a report in this manner by any carrier or defense attorney.

I do however agree that Rimkus's future credibility will be questioned, despite the fact that these are allegations at this point-not proven facts. If Rinkus did alter their report(verses ammend or clarify based on additonal data) then they should be accountantable. If not I hope they sue the dickens out of the plaintiff for damages. We should all remember that we are all innocent until proven guilty.
