A conviction bias is a cognitive bias where individuals tend to interpret information in a way that confirms their preexisting beliefs or convictions. This bias can lead to selective exposure to information that aligns with one's beliefs, as well as a tendency to dismiss or ignore evidence that contradicts those beliefs. It can result in closed-mindedness and hinder critical thinking skills.

What is the difference between a miscarriage of justice and an exoneration?

A miscarriage of justice refers to the wrongful conviction or punishment of an innocent person due to errors in the legal process, such as improper evidence, procedural mistakes, or bias. In contrast, an exoneration occurs when an individual who was previously convicted is officially declared innocent, often as a result of new evidence, appeals, or legal reviews that demonstrate their wrongful conviction. Essentially, while a miscarriage of justice signifies the wrongful conviction itself, exoneration is the process of correcting that mistake.
