Mistaken Identity

Mistaken identity refers to a situation where a person is misidentified or misrecognized, often leading to wrongful assumptions about their identity, actions, or character. This can occur in various contexts, such as law enforcement, where an innocent individual might be wrongly accused of a crime based on eyewitness misidentification or flawed evidence. It can also happen socially, where people confuse one person with another due to similar appearance or circumstances. Mistaken identity highlights the importance of accurate recognition and verification in everyday interactions and legal matters.
