CCTV and eyewitness misidentification
This is an interesting article about the role of CCTV in wrongful convictions, in producing images with visual certainty ... http://forensicphotoshop.blogspot.com/2009/08/cctv-at-heart-of-wrongful-conviction.html The link goes to an article in the Guardian, where it says "Four people said they recognised William Mills as the man who robbed a bank in Glasgow's West End – but all of them were wrong. Having endured a dawn raid on his family home and roughly a year in prison, Mills was freed earlier this year. With more eyewitness evidence being gathered than ever before, could he be part of a growing trend of wrongful convictions?": http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/aug/18/eyewitness-evidence-wrongful-conviction
