A local gallery was burgled, and two witnesses, Amara and Ben, saw the suspect fleeing the scene. Before the police arrived, Amara and Ben discussed what they saw, and Amara mentioned that the suspect was wearing a dark blue hoodie, which Ben then agreed with. During his subsequent formal police interview, the officer asked Ben: "How fast was the suspect's getaway car travelling when it smashed through the security gates?"
Discuss research into the effects of misleading information on the accuracy of eyewitness testimony. Refer to Amara and Ben in your answer.
