That's just sill, Dis. "Victims" misindentify people all the time. And the law often makes mistakes.I tend to not hang around where there's trouble - I'm smart like that.
You have a solution that guarantees 100% perfection? Thought not.
you also aren't a minority, which is where most of the mistakes tend to be made. we don't always have a say in the neighborhoods we live in.
a great deal of the problem is shoddy police work and terrible identification testimony. the inter-racial recognition rate is probably about 15% with the wind at your back.
but it's not like any of that affects you, so it's all good, eh?
and i don't think anyone said it had to be perfect. the question asked was what do we owe people whose lives are taken away for no reason.
Hey, you had to have done something really wrong at some point in your life to get pulled into that lineup in the first place. They don't just pluck random people off the street and haul them in.
And Modberts answer is to totally get rid of the death penalty, and just house/clothe/feed murderers forever.
That work for you?
