内容説明

"The Case for the Prosecution" describes the findings of the first major research into prosecution decision-making since the 1984 Police and Criminal Evidence Act. Under the new system, the Crown Prosecution Service was created. It claimed to be open and fair, and to enhance the suspects' rights. The reality, say the authors, is that police discretion is barely fettered by the law, and that safeguards to rights can frequently be bypassed. The entire prosecution process is examined and criticized in this book. This book should be of interest to researchers, teachers, students and professionals of police studies, law and criminology.
