Part 1: Should We Convict?
A woman who was shopping in Los Angeles had her purse stolen by a young, blonde female who was wearing a ponytail. The blonde female got into a yellow car that was driven by a white male who had a mustache and a beard. The police located the blonde female named Janet Collins who wore her hair in a ponytail and had a friend who was a white male who had a mustache and beard and also drove a yellow car. The police arrested the two subjects.
Because there were no eyewitnesses and no real evidence, the prosecution used probability to make its case against the defendants. The probabilities below were presented by the prosecution for the known characteristics of the thieves.
