From what I have heard witness testimony in generally is extremely unreliable. Human memory sucks.

Yet another reason the death penalty should be outlawed. Being in death row when you know you're innocent has to be the worst thing ever. But the justice system in some states have a hard on for killing.

I think about that reality often. How could you ever trust a human again?

Yep, had some dick try to smash into my house. Got a clear look at him and yelled at him in my angry voice and he fucked off. A month later police called me and asked for specific details about his look. I was like wtf? Maybe ask me when you arrived 5 minutes later and not now. I couldn’t remember shit.
