Course description
In the modern world, evidence in criminal proceedings is as much about digital evidence as it is physical. With digital evidence comes the added challenge of disclosure and admissibility. Often there is an evidential chain, which must be complete before the evidence can be admitted.
This webinar seeks to update those who work within the criminal justice system about the increasingly important area of digital evidence.
Join expert speaker Clive Smith as he discusses the things you should be considering regarding phone calls and text messages, whether identification evidence via social media will stand up in court, and how the law on hearsay could help you. Disclosure of phone records in sexual offences will be explored, along with 999 calls and res gestae, plus much more.
