I do believe that memories can be repressed and later recovered, but I also think that using recovered memories as evidence in a court of law is highly problematic. If a memory provides information that leads to actual forensic evidence -- the locations of buried bodies being a particularly dramatic example -- that can certainly be the basis for a conviction. But if it can't be corroborated at all, I would encourage a court to tread very lightly.
