Agreed! For an individual to be wrongly convicted requires multiple institutions to fail in lockstep (i.e. the police, the prosecution, the courts).

Why would we task this same organizations with investigating such instances? Oversight should be conducted by an independent entity (preferably one with federal-level authority; and staffed by individuals removed from law enforcement / prosecution).
