Is Eyewitness Testimony Reliable?
Our years of experience as criminal defense attorneys have taught us that eyewitness testimony is often shown to be unreliable. Traditionally, police, the public, and the courts value the word of eyewitnesses. However, among the ethnically diverse population of Los Angeles, it is significant that the inaccuracies that often occur in the context of cross-racial identification may indicate misidentification of thieves by eyewitnesses in many instances.
