Answer:

- Not enough evidence

Sometimes there isn't enough evidence in a case to state fully what happened which can result into false accusation. It can also make the jury become confused and struggle to find whos the right murder due to the lack of evidence.

- misinterpreted evidence

If a forensic scientist looks at a piece of evidence with the wrong theory they might try to prove their theory by trying to get proof out of it which can cuse a domino effect to where the wrong person can be accused of the wrong thing.

- false evidence

The evidence may be planted and the forensic science can look at it the wrong way similar to misinterpreted evidence. usually forensic scientist can see that it has been planted but when they figure that it has then its even harder to look for the real evidence. and it would take a longer process. And if they present the false evidence in court it may take a bad turn.
