This comprehensive volume explores the impact of emerging technologies designed to fight crime and terrorism.
It first reviews the latest advances in detecting deception, interrogation, and crime scene investigation, before then transitioning to the role of technology in collecting and evaluating evidence from lay witnesses, police body cameras, and super-recognizers. Finally it explores the role of technology in the courtroom with a particular focus social media, citizen crime sleuths, virtual court, and child witnesses. It shines light on emerging issues, such as whether new norms have been created in the emergence of new technologies and how human behaviour has shifted in response. Based on a global range of contributions, this volume provides an overview of the technological explosion in the field of law enforcement and discusses its successes and failures in fighting crime.
It is valuable reading for advanced students in forensic or legal psychology and for practitioners, researchers, and scholars in law, criminal justice, and criminology.

Emily Pica is an associate professor in the Department of Psychological Science and Counseling, Austin Peay State University, USA. Her current research interests involve investigating ways in which we can improve eyewitness identification accuracy, as it is one of the leading causes of wrongful convictions. Additionally, she examines which factors may be more (or less) influential in jurors' decision making.
David Ross, is a UC Foundation Professor of Psychology at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. He studies factors that impact the accuracy of eyewitness memory in children and adults. He has helped exonerate the wrongly imprisoned based on errors in eyewitness identification and works to prevent wrongful convictions by training law enforcement on collecting identification evidence according to research-based guidelines.
Joanna Pozzulo is Chancellor's Professor in the Department of Psychology at Carleton University, Canada, Director of the Mental Health and Well-Being Research and Training Hub (MeWeRTH), and director of the Laboratory for Child Forensic Psychology. The primary goal of her research is to understand how memory in the context of witnessing crime differs across the lifespan, focusing on the young eyewitness.
