I had two thesis in mind but I have narrowed it to one. I was researching about the human cadaver and how people misdiagnose the way they died. I came to a dead end on what to do with it. While researching about cadavers, I found a potential thesis. I think I'll do something about the justice system and how it isn't about the truth and why people lie in trial even when they are trying to find the truth. Like what leads them to lie, the pressure, the crowd, or just being a bad person in general? I started looking up potential mentors and talked to my teacher about it.

He had passed a polygraph test but the police told him he didn't. He was interrogated for eight hours when he finally cracked. He told the police he did it but the timing was wrong and fast forward to the future, he's a free man. While reading this case, it was shocking to see that there are frequent wrong-man convictions and one out of four of them are false confess...
