KESALAHAN PENJATUHAN HUKUMAN DALAM PROSES PENEGAKAN HUKUM (STUDI KASUS CRAIG COLEY DAN IMPLIKASI BAGI SISTEM PERADILAN)
Abstract
This study discusses the problem of wrongful conviction or errors in sentencing, especially in the context of the death penalty. These errors often occur due to various factors, such as forced interrogation, errors in forensic evidence analysis, and institutional bias. The method used in this study is normative legal research that focuses on the study of literature and primary legal materials, such as laws and regulations and related legal theories. The results of the study indicate that to minimize errors in sentencing, especially in cases of the death penalty, there needs to be reform in interrogation methods, standards of proof, and access to adequate legal aid. The use of modern forensic technology, such as DNA testing, and broader review of death penalty cases have also proven to be effective steps in reducing the risk of wrongful convictions.
