DNA Evidence Reliability
Read the article at the provided link. In it we find a man who was convicted of murder in New Jersey and he served almost 18 years in prison. Later he was cleared through DNA evidence. This is one of many cases that are being overturned in the courts due to DNA testing. Most of the cases are based on eye witness testimony that can be unreliable or questionable yet the juries convict.
Please address the following in a paragraph or two: Should DNA testing be a requirement if the person faces life in prison or the death penalty?
What should be done to Mr. Peterson now that he has been cleared and why do you feel that is appropriate; does society owe him something for his troubles and if so what is he owed?
What if the DNA testing was inconclusive?
Should he still have been released or are there other options to consider?
Do you feel that DNA testing is a reliable enough technology that we should use it in criminal justice?
