Presumed Guilty here
Having been an 8-year Connecticut resident, I can say that Darien is one of the more “enlightened” communities you’ll find in this country, but this is a huge precedent, and a great step forward.
Just look at the DATA. The Innocence Project has hard data that says eye witness identifications are WRONG 75% of the time.
Reblogged this on Stop Wrongful Convictions and commented:
Read this post and then consider the Jason Young case – where the star witness and only person able to challenge his alibi identified him after being shown one photo, and then inaccurately described him at the trial. This is not enough evidence to convict. There wasn’t one piece of evidence proving that he ever left his hotel room that night or was ever at the murder scene. This is how wrongful convictions happen. At least the police in CT did the right thing…knowing how inaccurate eyewitness ID can be.
