But no system is ever perfect and sometimes someone will be found guilty of murder because of some freak occurrence or coincidence that defies logic or reason. It is the same with any crime. If you stopped punishing people because there is a one in a billion chance that they are innocent then no one would be found guilty of any crime.
Eye witness accounts for about 20 odd percent of all investigations and focus, yet 75% of cases based on eye witness convictions are over-turned when scientific evidence is presented.

Scientifically proven that eye-witness is 100% unreliable unless collaborated with other scientific evidence.

Whilst my numbers might be out, yours is a ridiculous statement
