Again, what is the alternative, total chaos? Every system we have is best effort, all you can do is continue to try to improve your means of gathering information and making decisions.
As far as fake news goes, most of these real events are much more verifiable than someones memory in court. In many cases there is footage, many witnesses (whose testimony can be compared to one another), documents etc.
- Swizec 9y agoKeeping detailed records helps a lot in case of witnesses I think. Trials that don't last several years would be great too. Maybe avoid questioning people more than once? I don't have a solution or even that much knowledge of how it's already done. I'd say it's easy to point at cases where it obviously works well and where just witnesses without physical evidence are highly problematic. It's the cases in between that are hard. Even Sherlock Holmes always gets a confession in the end. Without a confession the case isn't over. Ever noticed that?
