Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Identifying the Culprit: Assessing Eyewitness Identification makes the case that better data collection and research on eyewitness identification, new law enforcement training protocols, standardized procedures for administering line-ups, and improvements in the handling of eyewitness identification in court can increase the chances that accurate identifications are made. This report explains the science that has emerged during the past 30 years on eyewitness identifications and identifies best practices in eyewitness procedures for the law enforcement community and in the presentation of eyewitness evidence in the courtroom. In order to continue the advancement of eyewitness identification research, the report recommends a focused research agenda.

This book was released on 2009-08-27 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eyewitness testimony is highly compelling in a criminal trial, and can have an indelible impact on jurors. However, two decades of research on the subject have shown us that eyewitnesses are sometimes wrong, even when they are highly confident that they are making correct identifications. This book brings together an impressive group of researchers and practicing attorneys to provide current overviews and critiques of key topics in eyewitness testimony.

Download or read book How Can So Many Be Wrong? written by Margaret A. Hagen and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-04-04 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the 347 U.S. false criminal convictions overturned so far through DNA testing, 73 percent were based on erroneous eyewitness testimony. How could so many eyewitnesses be wrong? This book answers this question. The analysis of the U.S. Supreme Court eyewitness cases shows that most of the Court’s holdings were likely in error. The Court—like the judges and juries in the courts below—greatly overestimated the reliability of eyewitnesses against the defendants and decided their convictions based on unsound evidence. The facts of the cases and personalities of the defendants are engaging and compelling. An expert is needed to inform the judge and the jury of the circumstances to consider when weighing the testimony of the witness against the facts of the case. It is a clear violation of Due Process to deny the defendant the provision of an expert witness in all cases where the eyewitness testimony lacks corroboration. Research assessing both cross-examination and jury instructions makes it abundantly clear that neither can effectively provide courts with the counterintuitive information necessary to evaluate eyewitness reliability: denial of an expert is denial of Due Process.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faulty eyewitness identification has contributed to the majority of exonerations due to wrongful convictions (Yarmey, 2001). Safeguards such as eyewitness testimony and judicial instructions were designed to aid jurors in evaluating this type of evidence (Cutler, Dexter & Penrod, 1989; Greene, 1988; Wells & Olson, 2003). The aim of the present study was to test whether expert eyewitness testimony and judicial instructions improve juror decision-making. Community members and undergraduate students watched a videotape of a rape trial, which varied in the quality of the eyewitness identification as well as the type of safeguard presented. System variables (feedback, lineup instructions, and lineup procedure) were manipulated where participants heard about either good or poor police practices. Additionally, participants were randomly placed in the expert, Henderson instructions or control conditions. Good police practices increased witness ratings in terms of credibility of the eyewitness, detective and defendant. It also increased the odds for a conviction. Henderson instructions did not influence jurors' verdicts.

Download or read book Eyewitness Ultimate Opinion Expert Testmony and Jury Decision Making written by Brittany Givens and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on juror decision making in eyewitness identification cases shows that jurors may benefit from expert education regarding eyewitness reliability (Wells, Lindsay, & Toursignant, 1980; Cutler, Dexter, & Penrod, 1989a; Cutler, Penrod, & Dexter, 1989b; English & Sales, 2005). However, little research has examined the effectiveness of expert opinion on the ultimate issue in eyewitness identification cases. Fairly recently, revisions were made to the New Jersey Supreme court judicial instructions to incorporate specific information regarding eyewitness identification factors. We examined the effectiveness of expert testimony, risk expert testimony, and ultimate opinion testimony combined with traditional judicial instructions and enhanced case specific judicial instructions, on sensitizing jurors to eyewitness witnessing conditions. Jurors read a written trial transcript of an attempted robbery case with either good or bad witnessing conditions. We hypothesized that jurors would be most effectively sensitized to good vs. bad witnessing conditions when exposed to case-specific judicial instructions combined with regular, risk, or ultimate opinion eyewitness expert testimony. Sensitization to witnessing conditions did not occur at any level of expert testimony, nor with the presence of case-specific judicial instruction. Witnessing conditions themselves however, were significantly associated with improved sensitization, and were reflected in mock juror verdicts.
