An example of false witness was the testimony of Dover School Board members in the ''Kitzmiller'' case, who lied in affidavits and on the stand to protect the [[intelligent design]] policy that was later overturned as unconstitutional.<ref> "n7 ... In fact, one consistency among the Dover School Board members' testimony, which was marked by selective memories and outright lies under oath, as will be discussed in more detail below, is that they did not think they needed to be knowledgeable about ID because it was not being taught to the students. We disagree." Judge John E. Jones III, Republican, in Kitzmiller v. Dover Independent School District, 400 F. Supp. 2d 707, 727.</ref>  This was, of course, just the opinion of the Judge, but supported by other commentators as well.<ref>Edward Hume, "Monkey Girl," especially chapters 14-17, available [http://www.amazon.com/Monkey-Girl-Evolution-Education-Religion/dp/0060885483/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-6896887-5284101?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1177719019&sr=8-1 here] for purchase.</ref>
