Course Information:
Throughout a criminal investigation it is likely that a number of exhibits will be seized. It is important that these are considered for any evidential or investigative opportunities that may be presented by the item seized. It is also imperative that seized property is stored in a secure and appropriate way for the duration of the investigation, or as long as required.
It is important that individuals involved in the investigation keep a constant review of the status of any exhibits gathered throughout the course of an investigation. Investigators have a duty to ensure that all reasonable lines of enquiry are completed, and that material is gathered, recorded and retained as part of that investigation. Some exhibits which were felt not to be relevant, may become relevant as the investigation progresses.
Failure to ensure that any exhibits collected or generated during a criminal investigation are correctly logged, and the chain of continuity maintained can undermine the investigation process which may lead to a case being lost in court.
This CPD accredited course will be delivered by Sarah Bradley, who has over 15 years’ experience as a criminal investigator within the police and a local authority.
