CSI effect
The CSI effect, also known as the CSI syndrome and the CSI infection, is any of several ways in which the exaggerated portrayal of forensic science on crime television shows such as CSI: Crime Scene Investigation influences public perception. The term most often refers to the belief that jurors have come to demand more forensic evidence in criminal trials, thereby raising the effective standard of proof for prosecutors. While this belief is widely held among American legal professionals, some studies have suggested that crime shows are unlikely to cause such an effect, although frequent CSI viewers may place a lower value on circumstantial evidence. As technology improves and becomes more prevalent throughout society, people may also develop higher expectations for the capabilities of forensic technology.

Sinking
by: Cause & EffectI want to be new
Let go yesterday
And hold on to whatever comes my way
I claim to be true
You want yesterday
You hold your ground no matter what you say
You'll seem to bring me down at any price
If you were in my shoes you'd think about it twice
Because I'm sinking
Sinking to a place I've never been before
Hoping that I won't be here too long
Sinking to a place I've never been before
A million thoughts in one night can't be wrong
Night time brings the blue
Daylight brings the joy
And could it be that I've destroyed the boy
I want peace for you
For a little boy
And for the ones who's wisdom you employ
They seem to criticize at any price
