Eyewitness testimony is almost absolutely worthless and in most cases if that's the only evidence then the defendant should be found not guilty.

Burden of proof again


I mean, maybe that's how it should work, but that's certainly not how it does work.

The burden of proof is never on the eyewitness unless there are inconsistencies in their account. The burden of proof is almost always on the defense to prove what the witness says they saw didn't happen/they couldn't have seen it/etc.
