Discuss the statement: “The human brain works in a way that makes us unsuitable as witnesses in a trial”

3 things to note here: Weapons-focus Leading questions Timing Weapons focus: What we encode during a crime is important. If a weapon is present, most victims will divide most of their attention to it. This means that less attention will be placed on other details related to the event. Leading questions: Misinformation effect. Witnesses may tailor their response to how the questions are asked. They might even misremember details because of this. Timing: When we ask questions matters, as the quality gets wors and more fist-like over time. The longer we take to recall the memories , the more they can deteriode and fade.
