This article I about injustice in the court system. It covers many topics that can affect the verdict. Studies show that race is a big factor when it comes to deciding if someone is guilty. Studies show that the darker your skin color there is a higher chance you will be picked out of a line-up. This article also covers the idea that attractiveness has an effect. For example, if you are overweight you are more likely to have a higher bail, or more jail time. There is even a quote that states, “a system that we know does include quite a lot of judicial bias.” This shows us that there is indeed injustice and we should bring to the judges attention the evidence.

What is one way we could stop the injustice?

Why do you think there is so much injustice?
