We efficiently review all pending cases to identify those with the most problematic science. Science on Trial highlights cases where flawed forensic evidence may have led to wrongful convictions. We provide a report showing which cases have the most flawed science and are easiest to overturn. This targeted approach ensures economical use of the CIU's resources, facilitating quicker corrections of convictions rooted in unreliable science, ensuring justice is served by correcting errors in faulty scientific testimony.
