I think this CNN story might be worth a look in light of all the supposed "experts" and eyewitnesses eagerly offering their "informed opinions" as to Louisiana's "problems" versus Southern California's "successes."
"Mistaken eyewitness identification has long been the single biggest factor in the conviction of innocents," said Barry Scheck, co-founder of the Innocence Project.
And, for those who can stomach it, today NPR had a few prime examples of this sort of smug stupidity, including a caller from right here in Red Stick. Thanks for being such an asshole, whatever-your-name-was (and yeah, I'm glad I forgot it).
