What happens to a fair trial when it moves onto a screen?

Since the pandemic, courts across Europe have continued to use video links for defendants, witnesses, lawyers and even judges. Convenient, certainly. But what does that convenience cost?

Join us for the second session of our Criminal Justice Webinar Series, where we'll explore virtual criminal justice and discuss what a fair trial looks like when it unfolds through a screen with Dr Karolina Kremens University of Wrocław and Dr Christina Peristeridou Maastricht University.

What does it actually cost to leave crime behind, not just materially but symbolically? đź’­

What does it mean to lose being someone in a world where you mattered? 🤔

These are the questions Max Dennehy (University of Strathclyde) and Andi Brierley (Leeds Trinity University) address in their new article in The British Journal of Criminology, and they are questions we'll be opening up in the first session of our Criminal Justice Webinar Series.

It's conversation grounded in research and lived experience. And finally, a conversation like this is open to the public.
