Miscarriages of Justice

A miscarriage of justice occurs when an individual is wrongly convicted or acquitted of a crime, often due to flawed evidence, mistaken identity, or other errors in the justice system. As technology increasingly plays a role in investigations and court proceedings, the tech community is working to develop and implement tools that can help prevent such miscarriages, such as forensic analysis software and data-driven witness identification systems, ultimately aiming to improve the accuracy and fairness of the justice system.
