Message: [QUOTE="Buzzyboy, post: 3478062, member: 1364"] There are so many factors that contribute to wrongful convictions and one has to do with the lawyers .... there are lawyers who are so eloquent that they ALONE can be the difference between conviction and innocence while there are defense attorneys who often aren't good at their job or not wholeheartedly working for their client. Then there are the law enforcement people who sometimes aren't as proficient at collecting evidence or investigating properly or may often focus their investigations on one suspect too quickly and make assumptions, thus limiting the scope of their investigations. Conversely, some guilty people get off because of shoddy police work so it does work both ways. The justice system works to be fair but it is fair from being perfect. [/QUOTE]
