Description of the conference:
The leading theme of the conference concerns the amendment to the Polish Code of
Criminal Procedure and its implication on the forensic process. Adequately, the meeting shall
address the way these changes influence evidential procedure as well as compare them with
the criminal justice system, in particular the adversarial one, of Anglo-Saxon countries. The
benefits of the new criminal justice system together with new roles of scene of crime officers,
experts, prosecutors, attorneys and judges will be presented. The event is directed to the
representatives of judiciary and prosecutors, theoreticians and practitioners working in the
forensic field, scientific researchers, police managers, crime scene officers, law and police
academy students as well as the entrepreneurs from both Poland and abroad.
The first day of the conference, 18 March 2015, will be devoted to the role of the crime scene
officer. The exchange of crime scene investigation experience and the information on utilized
up-to-date technologies and standards with police and judicial representatives from various
European countries and the U.S will provide the basis for development of even more
effective practices towards obtaining solid and irrefutable evidence. Mock crime scene
investigation conducted by teams of crime scene officers from Poland and United Kingdom
will constitute the integral part of Day 1.
On the following day - 19 March 2015 – the role of forensic expert and judicial bodies, with
particular emphasis on forensic examination, utilization of cutting edge developments across
various field of science and maintenance of chain of custody from crime scene to the court
will be discussed in line with amended Code of Criminal Procedure, as any irregularities in
the so-called forensic process may lead to undermining the value of evidence by the other
party. The amendment to the Code of Criminal Procedure by allowing adversarial system,
which is close to the one followed in the Anglo-Saxon countries will be discussed after
presentation by the invited speakers on how the system has worked in practice.
