Eyewitness errors are the main reason for false convictions, especially in robbery and sexual assault instances.

  • Robbery is the illegal seizure of another person's property through force or the threat of force. Robbery hasn't happened without using force or threatening to use force. The term "theft" is a catch-all that refers to all theft-related offenses as well as robbery and burglary.
  • One of the main reasons for unjust convictions is eyewitness error. In fact, according to the American Psychological Association, one in three eyewitnesses misidentify the scene.
  • Mistakes in identifying perpetrators can be influenced by a variety of factors, such as poor viewing conditions, insufficient time to view the perpetrator, or too much time between witnessing and identification. In laboratory studies of eyewitness identifications, this process is modeled.

ikadub [295]

<u>Reasons why United States involved in Road to Independence:</u>

Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam were French protectorates for many years and their road to independence resulted in the Indochina War which was thought for 30 years. The US got involved in the war to prevent communism but it also had an interest in foreign policies, national fears, economic interests and geopolitical strategies.

In that era, most Eastern European countries were under communist rule, and communism was fast spreading to other parts of the world including Latin America, Africa and Asia. The US involvement in Indochina battle was a tactic to contain communism.
