As a software person who has to write tests validating his systems all the time, who was also a juror in a trial that was a travesty... it strikes me as extremely odd that we don't run "mock trial tests" on this of all systems, where the jury, judge and lawyers don't know it's a test.
Let's just say I have SERIOUS doubts that this system satisfies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackstone%27s_ratio https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackstone%27s_ratio
If it's too difficult to fake evidence, we could randomize say 1% of the cases where the convicted is exonerated and given immunity and asked to anonymously report their actual guilt to a system in the interest of supporting a better legal system... yeah, this too would be difficult... hmmm... there must be a way to do this
