The Illusion

Crime Show Inaccuracies The Reality

Crime Show Inaccuracies No glitz No glamour No glory No social life

Crime Show Inaccuracies Costs: UK police investigations, processing suspects in custody and case preparation has been estimated at £2.2 billion

Crime Show Inaccuracies Costs: Prosecution: Police officers, CSI’s, custody staff, logistics, Scientists, CPS, barristers £550 million

Crime Show Inaccuracies Defence: Defence solicitor, barrister, defence scientist Mostly legal aid funded £360 million

Crime Show Inaccuracies In over 90% of cases the challenge is not to the science – it is to the chain of custody and integrity of the exhibits.

Crime Show Inaccuracies At one volume crime scene with minimal evidence recovery:

Crime Show Inaccuracies One piece of information can be written 22 times and another 32 times

Crime Show Inaccuracies

21 million items of forensic evidence in the UK criminal justice system every year plus any exhibits stored for future use.

Crime Show Inaccuracies 21 million exhibits X 54 documentation processes = 1,134,000,000 opportunities for error

Crime Show Inaccuracies These are all costs if everything works. But it can’t go wrong – Can it?

Crime Show Inaccuracies 2003 – Ontario, Canada Pathology samples mislaid. Innocent suspect remanded in custody London Police failed to submit DNA samples to database

Crime Show Inaccuracies Southampton Victim of 27 year miscarriage of justice served extra 11 years due to 'lost' evidence held in a forgotten forensic archive on an industrial site.

Crime Show Inaccuracies Every day in every court, because of lost evidence: A guilty person can walk free. An innocent person can go to jail. Victims and society are denied justice

Crime Show Inaccuracies Retail stores know which shelf in which stores items are displayed. Forensic science cannot even find the store!!!

Crime Show Inaccuracies Any questions?
