Criminal Procedures /Evidence

In this course, students explore the underlying theory, evolution of criminal procedures and rules governing the admissibility of evidence as it pertains to policies and practice involved in criminal investigations. Students examine police powers and the law relating to the criminal justice process of investigation, arrest, pleadings, trial and appeals. In addition, the course provides students with an understanding of police modes of interviewing, interrogation and critical crime scene analysis. Most importantly, students are equipped with both the theoretical and practical knowledge of aspects of criminal procedure and evidence within the Canadian criminal justice system.
