One of the principal attributes of a Digital Forensic Investigator is the ability to
process conflicting evidence and, after its analysis, be able to reach reasonable and sound
conclusions based on the available data.
For this exercise, we ask you to gather as much information as possible about a public person,
now going by the name of Daniel Tammet, born Daniel Paul Corney and decide whether he is
indeed a savant or not. For arriving to a justified conclusion, please compare him with other well-

videos, documentaries, etc.) you consult. Please see this as an OSINT investigation, where the
ultimate truth may be unknowable but you have to provide an independent and expert opinion.
You are kindly suggested to start with this interview:
