How is science technology changing law enforcement?

The most important advance was DNA testing. Many people that were in prison were found to be innocent when the evidence against them was dna tested. Unfortunately the evidence was not available for all people so it is a fact that many innocent people are in a cage still. One of our founding fathers said that it was better for 10 guilty men to go free than 1 innocent man to go to jail. Unfortunately this seems to be the opposite of criminal justice in our country mainly due to the plea-bargain system, which is mainly used to speed up the the processing of the accused in today%26#039;s overflowing courts.. A fact of life that many do not believe or refuse to admit is the more money you have the more justice you can buy. If you have been through the system you can speak from experience as I am now.|||tazers tear gas to just name a few|||More homework...|||Where do you start?
