Key Issue Description
Is Eye Witness Testimony reliable?
Eye witness testimony refers to the recalled memory of a witness to a crime or incident
Some argue that it is so unreliable that it should not be the basis of criminal convictions
e.g. Beth Rutherford claimed her father had sexually abused her, but this was later found to be false
Others believe jurors are more likely to rely on witness testimony than scientific proof or forensic evidence
