The Minority Report

"The Minority Report" is a science fiction story set in a future where a specialized police unit uses psychic "precogs" to predict crimes before they happen. This allows them to arrest potential criminals before they commit an offense. The plot follows a police officer who becomes a target after being accused of a future murder, leading him to uncover flaws in the system. The story explores themes of free will, determinism, and the moral implications of preemptive justice, questioning whether it is right to punish someone for a crime they have not yet committed.
