Good question! I just found this:

>No license is normally required for selling uncut unprocessed fresh fruits and vegetables at farmers markets or vegetable stands in most areas. It is not even necessary to follow the Home Food Processor rules, so long as the produce is not prepared or processed. Local authorities may have other requirements based on the size of your stand or operation and the location where you sell. Zoning laws or HOA rules, for example.

>In 2015, the Justice Department and the FBI formally acknowledged that nearly every examiner in an FBI forensic squad overstated forensic hair matches for two decades before the year 2000. Of the 28 forensic examiners testifying to hair matches in a total of 268 trials reviewed, 26 overstated the evidence of forensic hair matches and 95% of the overstatements favored the prosecution. Defendants were sentenced to death in 32 of those 268 cases.
