It began to gnaw at him, at first an inkling, then an obsession: Farah Jama was truly innocent. Sonnet (Associate Crown Prosecutor) decided then that he didn't want to grant Jama a re-trial.

Comment peut-on passer d'une justice arbitraire à une justice rationnelle ? Voilà une des questions que se sont posées, au XVIIIe siècle, ceux que l'on appelle aujourd'hui les Philosophes. Leur volonté générale de réforme de la société et de ses institutions s'accompagnait d'une réflexion sur le crime et sa gestion. La ville de Genève a été un des laboratoires de cette réflexion. Michel Porret montre que ce projet de réforme judiciaire suppose une chose essentielle : pour qu'une justice plus rationnelle soit possible, il faut« qualifier »le crime, en établir les« circonstances », atténuantes ou aggravantes. Ce sera à l'expert de le faire. À partir du siècle des Lumières, on le convoquera sans cesse sur la scène du crime. Qu'il s'agisse de tromperie, de commerce du livre dangereux, de viol, de suicide ou de mort violente, l'expert est partout. Mais comment saisir son rôle ? Les archives judiciaires genevoises regorgent de récits par lesquels on assiste à la transformation de la façon de rendre la justice à la fin de l'Ancien Régime. Elles révèlent aussi la détresse des petites gens devant les drames dont ils sont victimes. Mêlées à celle des experts et des théoriciens du droit, c'est leurs voix que Michel Porret fait enfin entendre.

In der kriminaltechnischen Praxis beginnt Forensik materialiter und lokal: mit Spuren am Ereignisort einer Tat. Medien der Forensik operieren als Tatortmedien und formieren Medientatorte. Sie prozessieren Datenspuren und Spurmedialitäten. In digitalen Medienkulturen ist - im Off offizieller Forensik - eine Konjunktur medienforensischer Semantiken, Verfahren, Praktiken zu beobachten, denen Simon Rothöhler nachgeht: in Alltags- und Popkultur (True Crime), in der Praxis künstlerischer Forschung (Forensic Architecture), in zivilgesellschaftlich-investigativen Kontexten (Open Source Intelligence).

It is startling to read how few sexual offenses are reported in a year; even more shocking to see how few reports lead to an arrest. Research on effective responses to sexual offenses is much needed and ongoing. This edited book presents the current state of research on investigative techniques used in sex crime investigations, and the operational challenges and issues that arise in these investigations. Including an international cohort of scholars from various academic backgrounds, it reviews current efforts in key areas, synthesizing the research to make recommendations for the improvement of investigative practices and the criminal justice system's response to sexual offenses. Each chapter includes a brief introduction to the topic, a review of the research, and a discussion of the key points relevant to investigators and researchers as they move forward. The book is broken down into four themes: suspect prioritization and identification techniques, investigative interviewing, operational challenges and issues, and the investigation of specific types of sex crimes. With its broad coverage and international scope, this volume fills the gap in knowledge for investigators working on sex crimes cases. With its easy-to-read style and clear analysis of the research, this is the perfect volume for investigators and law enforcement officers, policy makers and researchers, and students in criminology and criminal justice, forensic psychology, and victim services.

‘Operational incidents’ denotes misconduct, misdeeds or mishaps that occur on military operations, whether concerning the mistreatment of enemy soldiers, offences against civilians, conflict of varying levels within one’s own forces, or accidents that lead to injury or death within a theatre of operations. Alleged breaches of IHL or the disciplinary regulations of particular militaries require at the very least an initial assessment to determine the facts and then, if warranted, a more substantial investigation. The need for robust investigations, however, is not always matched by the will and the ability to undertake them. There is at last a sufficient body of experience on which we can reflect, in this volume, on such investigations, their challenges, and their likely evolution.
