- emodendroket 5y agoI think it’s related. If it is good enough to put someone in jail there shouldn’t be any kind of need for manual overrides at all.
- CrazyStat 5y ago"Good" in what sense? Police and prosecutors don't necessarily care about their evidence being good in the sense of accurate. It just needs to convince a jury. There is a very, very, very long history of police and prosecutors using bad (in the sense of accuracy) evidence to put people in jail.
