It’s nearly impossible to overturn a case, I never brought that up or suggested that.where you got confused is that you haven’t kept up with any scientific research in the last hundred years relating to human memory, especially under stress

Eyewitness testimony is as reliable as lie detectors, ouiji boards, and Dosing rods for fact finding.

I brought that up because it’s the only example I’ve been able to find (I didn’t try all that hard, but still) of how faulty eyewitnesses testimony impacts case outcomes. It’s also not almost impossible to get a case overturned, we have an entire court system devoted to hearing appeals. You just fundementally don’t know what you’re talking about.

A truly miniscule number of cases are based off of a single eyewitnesses’ testimony, either historically or in the modern era.

I don’t mean this offensively, but are you on the spectrum?

… Wow. Just wow. You’re conclusively wrong, and now you’re trying to sidestep that wrongness with a truly tone deaf ad hominem?

There’s no way to ask that question in this context that isn’t offensive. Either you’re implying my argument is poorly founded because I am autistic, or you’re implying that my argument is somehow invalid because it sounds like it was written by an autistic person. Either way, and I for sure mean this offensively you sad little troll, fuck right off and take your spurious ravings about the court system with you.
