Has anyone else looked into the history of eyewitness accounts in Alexander Sol Olive's case? It seems like the testimony from 2001 was really pivotal in leading to murder charges against Roberson, but I can’t help but wonder about the reliability of those kinds of statements, especially given how much time had passed since 1985. I mean, memory can be so tricky over years, and eyewitnesses might interpret or recall events differently under pressure or due to the passage of time. On the other hand, there must have been enough corroborating details to push for those charges, right? Would love to hear others’ thoughts on how this aspect of the investigation impacted the case and the eventual conviction.
