Ok. For downvoters will try to clarify:

it's not lifes ruined but company ruined in this case. It's just fail, but not life fail. Nobody will die, get in prison for 300+ years, get sick, etc. Your company failed - start it over and do it right next time.

Security and forensic companies are built on individual reputations. The opinions put forth by expert witnesses have to be defensible in court. Your suggestion is unrealistic in its original context: once an expert witness's reputation is ruined, it's time to find a new field of work.
