YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A TYT Nation submission about the unreliability of eye witness testimony in the court of law. Although these testimonies seem like reliable and accurate sources of information, according to evidence and research done on the subject, this may be just a myth. Many different case studies have shown that eye witness testimonies are not always 100% reliable. Many variables contribute to this, including changing memories, levels of attention of the witness during the event, and misleading questions asked by prosecutors. Should the American justice system still use this incredibly unreliable system? Or should we just scrutinize eye witness testimonies more than we do now? What are some solutions to this problem? Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
