A Resource for Criminal Defense Lawyers Defending ID Cases

If you are a Connecticut Criminal Defense attorney and defend people accused of crimes where so-called eyewitness identification testimony is involved, you probably should join the free organization called eyeID.org.

Eyewitness testimony is often incorrect for lots of reasons. (And this is separate from when the witness is intentionally lying.) In other words, so-called eyewitnesses too often just accuse the wrong person. This has been shown over and over again through the use of DNA testing which has subsequently shown that the wrong person is in jail.

eyeID.org provides criminal defense lawyers with resources such as trial pleadings, expert transcripts, training materials, research articles, police procedures, etc. for use when defending ID cases.

Note well: The eyeID.org website is for criminal defense lawyers ONLY. Law Enforcement need not apply.
