Abstract

Forensic science contributes to criminal science by using scientific methods, which allow for greater controllability in producing evidence, seeking to reduce the subjectivism inherent in other types of proof. In this scenario, we aim to answer the question: how can the comprehension and mitigation of forensic errors contribute to ensuring the rights of the adversarial principle, the entire defense, and legal evidence? The working hypothesis is that knowledge about forensic errors is indispensable for the high quality of expert evidence, resulting in a more coherent, evidential assessment that is more focused on the facts to reduce arbitrariness and judicial errors. To this end, the hypothetical-deductive method was used, with the technique of bibliographic review and reference to jurisprudence. In conclusion, it was possible to show that the scientific community should reflect, discuss and value more rigor in forensic science, prioritizing a clear communication of results to harmonize science, justice, and society.
