People who experienced homeless encampment sweeps in Washington state and Tennessee wrote about the impact it had on their lives.

Any evidence where a human being is using their eyesight to decide whether or not something is matching without using actual measuring tools, the evidence is going to be unreliable because sight is biased. Fingerprints and ballistics are approximate, but they're treated as hard evidence.

While we're here, forensic ballistics is also bullshit. There is no peer-reviewed evidence showing that each gun leaves a unique imprint on a gun that can be replicated. Each time a gun is fired the barrel changes, so each bullet will have a different marking. And forensic labs also eyeball those
