Amicus Brief: Recovered Memories
Number of pages:
12
ABSTRACT:
12 pages in length. The judicial system relies solely upon the unadulterated value of eyewitness testimony; when that commitment to justice is compromised, the entire jury-by-trial upon which civilized society depends is cast into permanent disrepair where many innocent people will ultimately suffer for such legal transgression. The use of recovered memories in statements of eyewitnesses is not only askew of the fundamental principles of evidentiary validity but also ignores the very clear research findings that illustrate how detrimental such testimony can be to trial outcome. Bibliography lists 13 sources.
