Wrongful Conviction Patterns explores the systemic flaws within the criminal justice system that lead to the unjust imprisonment of innocent individuals. It highlights how issues like flawed forensic science, unreliable eyewitness testimony, and inadequate legal representation contribute to these miscarriages of justice. For example, the book reveals how implicit biases can significantly skew legal proceedings, leading to unfair outcomes. Understanding these patterns is crucial for legal professionals, policymakers, and anyone concerned with justice.

The book examines how these factors are not isolated incidents but predictable outcomes of systemic weaknesses. It proceeds logically by first introducing core concepts like forensic fallibility and eyewitness misidentification, then delving into detailed explorations supported by case studies and statistical analysis. Drawing on court transcripts and legal research, the analysis quantifies the prevalence of contributing factors.

By connecting to broader fields like psychology and political science, Wrongful Conviction Patterns provides a holistic understanding of the issue and offers potential reforms for a more equitable legal system.
