The System. Part 4; "Eyewitness identification" - an exploration of emerging insight into eyewitness science - June 8, 2014 9E/6P, Al Jazeera America network.


RELEASE: Al Jazeera America presents Part 4 of "The System," - "Eyewitness identification" - to be televised  over the network on June 8, 2014 9E/6P.

GIST: This episode explores emerging insight into eyewitness science. A man is convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison. Prosecutors relied on eyewitness testimony to convict him. Another man is convicted of murdering his friend during an armed robbery. There was no physical evidence, but witnesses picked him out of a six-pack photo lineup – a practice that has now been discredited.
