If you’ve played Among Us, then you’ve probably realised how flawed the eye witness testimonial system really is.

sometimes you get killed in Among Us, and you cant even remember the color of the guy who just did it.

but you’ll still trust my eye witness testimony 😅

In this game, players, like myself, are aware that our memories are not as good as we think they are and so much faith should not be placed on witnesses.

While eye witness accounts play a big part in how a court case flows, perhaps courts shouldn’t place so much faith in human recollection.
