Policing Insight - Subscription at source 23/1/2023 Feature, Innovation Lancashire Police: Sharing digital evidence used to take days, now hours thanks to NICE Investigate Digital evidence is growing by leaps and bounds, especially with the roll out of new body worn camera systems.

The force leverages NICE Investigate to make digital evidence from multiple connected systems, including body worn video, readily accessible to officers through a single login and to speed up Lancashire's ability to share video with the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS). Policing Insight 23/1/2023 Advertisement, Feature The Effects of Emotions on the Assessment of Child Sexual Abuse Interviews The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of emotions in the ability to assess a child sexual abuse (CSA) interview and recollection of details from it. The participants were 105 (80 women, Mage = 23.78, SDage = 7.06) undergraduate and graduate students. Participants watched pre-recorded interviews with child avatars that were interviewed suggestively (vs. not) and that revealed details of CSA (vs. not). Both self-reported and facial expressions were assessed. In addition, participants answered questions about the quality of the interview and details recollection. The results indicated increases in sadness and disgust in reaction to CSA interviews and relief in reaction to no-CSA interviews. Surprisingly, the objectively more suggestive interviews were perceived as less suggestive and more appropriate. CSA scenario interviews were perceived as less suggestive than the no-CSA scenario. Angry and sad participants made fewer and relieved participants more mistakes when recalling details revealed by the child avatars during the interviews.

The Council is a majority African American-led nonpartisan initiative that will use research and evidence to consider and offer recommendations to resolve some of the most significant and pressing issues concerning policing reforms and race. In launching this effort, the Institute acknowledges the role that racism, bias, culture (societal and organizational), and patterns and practices have played in the deterioration of trust and respect between law enforcement and Black communities. The Institute will encourage the Council to offer commentary, recommendations, and solutions for addressing these issues. While various national panels and blue-ribbon commissions have been put forth previously to address similar areas of concern, this effort is distinguished by bringing together a broad cross-section of perspectives, infusing what we know and don't know from science in relation to these issues, elevating the voices of Black Americans working inside and outside of the policing profession.
