Not my vision, I just recommend making the process more protective and yet swifter.
I'm on the fence. On the one hand, there's truth in the saying that

-Las Vegas AP—Sat December 14, 2024 - "US jury finds Vegas police fabricated evidence in 2001 killing, awards $34 million to exonerated woman.
A federal jury in Nevada has awarded more than $34 million to a woman who was arrested at age 18, wrongly convicted twice, and served nearly 16 years in a Nevada state prison for a 2001 killing she did not commit.
Justices said evidence showed that Lobato was in her hometown of Panaca, Nevada, some 150 miles from Las Vegas when Bailey was killed.
Kirstin Lobato, who is now 41 cried and hugged her attorneys after a judge read the trial verdict Thursday in US District Court.

As of 2024, Kraft remains on death row at San Quentin State Prison. He continues to deny responsibility for any of the homicides he was either convicted of or suspected of committing.
