Yeah okay. Witness testimony is less accurate than chance. Before other forms of evidence, the main evidence used was witness testimony. Therefore, logically, less than half of people convicted were guilty of the crime charged in jury trials.

There's also physical and circumstantial evidence, not just eye witness. And I don't think you fully grasp the concept of "logic. "Eye witness" being a highly unreliable source doesn't make "correct convictions" less likely than a coin toss

You're talking out your ass and trolling. Go home, peasant
