Nobody’s pursuing 0 innocent wrongfully convicted though.
The current system from that perspective works great. You have to get pretty unlucky to get convicted as an innocent, especially in this day and age where a cop’s testimony isn’t worth nowhere near as much as it used to be.
And morally alone it’s far worse to wrongfully convict an innocent person than to let a guilty one go free.
