About this ebook
Legal Truth explores the elusive nature of ""truth"" within our legal and justice systems, revealing how flawed evidence, biased testimony, and political agendas can derail the pursuit of justice. It examines how legal interpretations of truth can differ drastically from actual events, undermining the system's legitimacy. For example, the book highlights how forensic science, often perceived as infallible, can be subject to interpretation.
The book progresses by first exploring the philosophical basis of truth and then moves into how evidence is interpreted and sometimes manipulated. It then covers the reliability of eyewitness accounts and expert testimony, finally culminating in an examination of systemic factors contributing to wrongful convictions, such as prosecutorial misconduct.
Through case studies and research, the book seeks to engage readers interested in true crime, politics, and social justice by prompting reflection on how to improve fairness and accuracy in legal outcomes.
