How do murderers get away with their crimes?

Murderers may get away with their crimes if they can make a jury doubt the prosecution's case. This can be done by casting suspicion on witnesses, presenting alternative suspects, or by finding holes in the prosecution's evidence. Additionally, certain legal technicalities may limit a prosecutor's ability to successfully prosecute a case. In some cases, a guilty verdict may be prevented by an overly lenient judge or jury.

In some cases, murderers can get away with their crimes by pleading legal insanity, alleging that they were not in their right mind at the time of the crime. They may also be able to argue that they acted in self-defense or were acting under duress. Other potential defenses include alibi, diminished capacity, and innocence claims. It is also possible for criminals to avoid prosecution by taking advantage of prosecutors’ limited resources or by reaching plea deals.
