统计：美国有三千死囚犯，4%是无辜的。此外，美国每年至少有一万人无辜的人被法庭认定为其它重罪

As of July 10, 2016, there were 2,905 death row inmates in the United States. 

It shows that 4.1 percent of defendants who are sentenced to death in the United States are later shown to be innocent: 1 in 25. Death sentences are uniquely well-documented.

About 10,000 people in the United States may be wrongfully convicted of serious crimes each year, a new study suggests.

The results are based on a survey of 188 judges, prosecuting attorneys, public defenders, sheriffs and police chiefs in Ohio and 41 state attorneys general.

The study also found that the most important factor leading to wrongful conviction is

eyewitness misidentification.

• 为什么不在降低误判上下功夫，反而因噎而废食呢？ -落英如雪- ♀ (0 bytes) () 12/03/2016 postreply 15:14:49
