SUMMARY:Oral Presentation: It’s not “just like on TV”: A corpus analysis and examination of Miranda warnings on TV.
DESCRIPTION:Title: It’s not “just like on TV”: A corpus analysis and examination of Miranda warnings on TV. \nAbstract: \nThe American Miranda warnings are considered an “icon of constitutional law” that have been made “famous” by  television (Covey\, 2007). Similarly\, the US Supreme Court has also expressed the recognizability and prevalence of the Miranda warnings in American society (Dickerson v. United States 530 US at 443 (2000)). Perhaps unsurprisingly then\, excerpts from American police interviews demonstrate references to television representations in communicating Miranda warnings to suspects. Questioning officers’ reliance on pop culture’s representation of Miranda warnings warrants an investigation into how the Mirandizing process is actually presented on TV. This talk presents a review of arrests and custodial interviews in a popular American legal drama\, Law & Order: SVU which indicate that suspects are rarely adequately Mirandized on TV. That is\, they are either not Mirandized at all or read a partial (reduced) version. When fictional suspects are (partially) Mirandized\, a minimum component can be identified. Using this minimum component\, I present the results of a corpus analysis of TV subtitles using BYU’s TV Corpus which provides support the observation that Miranda warning are rarely provided in full in popular culture. As such\, these findings demonstrate that the Mirandizing process is not “just like on TV”.

SUMMARY:Oral Presentation: Intrinsic and extrinsic factors of sexual aggressors’ associated with their confession in an investigative interviewing context
DESCRIPTION:Intrinsic and extrinsic factors of sexual aggressors’ associated with their confession in an investigative interviewing context \nAbstract \nMuch is still yet unknown of individual\, offense and situational factors allowing to predict sexual aggressors’ confession to their crime. The objectives of this study are (1) to identify them and (2) to elaborate an interaction model helping to better understand sexual aggressors’ decision to confess during an investigative interview. Seventy eight participants were recruited at the Regional Reception Centre\, a federal correctional facility located in Quebec\, Canada. Results from logistic regression modeling suggested that sexual aggressors are a distinct population of interest and a specific approach should be use when interrogating them. The results also support an integrative approach to confession that would take into account individual\, offense and situational factors in order to better understand what makes sexual aggressors confess in an investigative interview\, although individual factors seem to play a prominent role. The regression models and the predictor variables within them are further discussed in relation to their implications on police practices in the interrogation room. \nKeywords: Investigative interviewing\, sexual aggressors\, confession\, police \n  \nAuthors: Samuel Girard\, Tamsin Higgs\, Tony Brien\, Nadine Deslauriers-Varin

SUMMARY:Oral Presentation: (Not) for the record: Doing implicatures in police reports of domestic violence
DESCRIPTION:Title: (Not) for the record: Doing implicatures in police reports of domestic violence \nAbstract: \nConversational implicature (Grice 1975) is a pragmatic strategy used in discourse to carry meaning(s) not encoded explicitly in language. There are many reasons why explicitness is not the most appropriate route\, for example\, social politeness (Brown and Levinson 1987). Discourse participants often make sense of utterances in everyday interactions by ‘picking up’ implicatures. This is largely achieved by recourse to relevance (Sperber and Wilson 1986; Clark 2013). However\, because meanings generated through implicatures cannot be traced back to linguistic forms they can be easily denied. They are a good vehicle therefore\, for carrying meanings that discourse participants are reluctant to put on-record but wish to communicate nonetheless. \nIn this paper\, I adopt a relevance-theoretic approach to police MG3 reports (‘Management Guidance’ reports prepared for prosecutors to obtain charging decisions). The reports summarise domestic violence cases. All of the cases in the reports resulted in non-prosecutorial discharge decisions (i.e. a ‘simple caution’). I examine a) the ways in which investigating officers and their police gatekeepers present case information through implicature; b)  how receivers (police and prosecutors) can use relevance to derive additional meanings from the reports; and c) the potential impact of inferential information on case outcomes. Finally\, I argue that some implicatures (and their cooperative recovery by institutional agents) can be regarded as constituting victim-blaming (Lynn and Canning 2021)\, and by extension\, reflect institutional misogynistic ideologies about domestic violence crimes. \nReferences: \nGrice\, H.

SUMMARY:Oral Presentation: Suspect responses to questions during homicide investigative interviews: What are the effects of suspect veracity and culpability?
DESCRIPTION:Title: Suspect responses to questions during homicide investigative interviews: What are the effects of suspect veracity and culpability?  \nAbstract: \nDuring a police investigative interview how a suspect responds is often highly dependent on the questions used by the interviewer. Using appropriate types of questions is therefore of great importance. Appropriate question types are those that are productive in obtaining information from a suspect\, whereas inappropriate types are those that inhibit or restrict a suspect from providing information. Accordingly\, several studies have measured interview quality by examining the percentage of different question types used\, though few studies have evaluated suspect responses to specific question types in detail. To explore suspect response\, a specially designed coding frame was applied to 60 homicide suspect interviews. The study examined the type\, frequency and yield (amount of information) of responses to certain appropriate and inappropriate question types. Responses were also examined in relation to the truthfulness of the suspect in interview\, and whether the suspect was later found guilty or innocent. The most frequent response was for suspects to provide information\, with open questions generating the largest yield. Guilty suspects denying their guilt were found to use avoidance strategies\, such as remaining silent or providing a minimal or non-lexical response. This presentation outlines possible explanations to determine how and why homicide suspects respond differently. \n  \nAuthors: Kate Miller (Principal Author; University of Chester)\, Dr Clea Wright (University of Chester)\, Associate Prof Michelle Mattison (University of Nottingham)\, Associate Prof Lisa Oakley (University of Chester).

SUMMARY:Oral Presentation: For the Record: A collaboration to improve evidential consistency in the production of police  investigative interview records
DESCRIPTION:Title: For the Record: A collaboration to improve evidential consistency in the production of police  investigative interview records \nAbstract:  \nThis paper will present the findings of a pilot project being undertaken as a collaboration between  academic researchers and an English police force\, which applies linguistic research to the process of  producing written transcripts of investigative interviews with suspects (ROTIs). This process is of real  importance since these written records are the version of the interview which is routinely presented  in court as part of the prosecution evidence\, yet the original spoken data are (necessarily)  substantially altered through the process of being converted into written format. Our aim is to  develop methods of reducing this routine interference with interview evidence. \nThe project involves linguistic analysis of interview audio and corresponding transcripts\, focus  groups with transcribers and interviewers\, and psycholinguistic experiments to demonstrate the  differences in interpretation that can result from different formats and transcription choices. \nThe intended outcome is to produce transcription guidelines and training to assist transcribers in  producing ROTIs which encapsulate more of the meaning conveyed by the original spoken  interaction\, and to enable consistency of interpretation of features such as punctuation and pauses  for the reader (e.g. fellow investigating officers\, CPS\, courts). We are also seeking to recruit other forces to roll out the project more widely. \n  \nAuthors: Dr Kate Haworth\, Dr Emma Richardson\, Dr James Tompkinson\, Dr Felicity Deamer\, Dr Magnus Hamann

SUMMARY:Symposium: Demonstrations of the importance and benefits of collaborative international research
DESCRIPTION:Symposium: Demonstrations of the importance and benefits of collaborative international research: Anglo- Japanese research and networking \n  \nAuthors: Dave Walsh\, Gavin Oxburgh\, Takashi Terashima\, Robin Orthey\, Marina Okamoto\, Graham Brooks\, Makiko Naka\, Akira Kyo\, Liam Satchell\, Joanne Rechdan\, Ray Bull\, Igor Areh\, Tom Ellis\, Masayuki Otake \n  \n\nInterpreter-assisted interviews: Examining investigators and interpreters’ views on their practice\n\nDave Walsh\, De Montfort University\, Leicester\, UK \nGavin Oxburgh\, Northumbria University\, UK \n  \nThe investigative interviewing of victims\, witnesses and suspects is one of the most frequent and important tasks undertaken by those conducting law enforcement investigations. Over the past twenty years or so there has been a substantial growth in the amount of research examining the practice. Nonetheless\, much less research has been conducted into those interviews where an interpreter is increasingly present. Using a self-administered questionnaire\, the present study examined the beliefs of 66 investigators and 40 interpreters in the context of international criminal investigations\, concerning certain key tasks in such interpreter-assisted interviews. It was regularly found that there was not always a consensus of opinion either within or between these two groups of professionals concerning whether (when participating in investigative interviews) (i) they prepared jointly with each other; (ii) interpreters assisted (or otherwise) with rapport building; (iii) interpreters could interpret accurately; and (iv) interpreter interventions were disruptive or not. Given such divisions of opinion\, our findings tend to suggest that there is a lack of clarity as to the role of interpreters and\, indeed\, only personalised views as to what is best practice. The implications of our findings are discussed and recommendations are made to enable practice enhancement. \n  \n\nEmerging research in Japan concerning the use of interpreters in interviews with suspects\n\nTakashi Terashima\, Fukuoka District Public Prosecutors Office\, Japan \n  \nThe world is globalised and the cross-border movement of people will be recovering and increasing after overcoming the pandemic. It is important to ensure that adequate interpreters are available in criminal justice procedures and to maintain fairness when dealing with crimes committed by foreign nationals. This presentation is about the challenges present in the Japanese legal interpretation system\, which the presenter\, a Japanese public prosecutor\, has become aware of through research into the legal interpretation system in the UK. This presentation will deal with three topics; the first is how to make high quality interpreters available; the second is how to remove inadequate interpretation; and the third is how to maintain the quality of interpreters. In this presentation\, the details of the Japanese system and its challenges will be illustrated\, referring to the presenter’s personal experience of criminal cases. \nNote: this presentation is intended to present the presenter’s personal views and not to represent the Japanese Public Prosecutors Office’s views \n  \n\nDetails of a research programme concerning the Concealed Information Test conducted in Japan\n\nRobin Orthey\, Aoyama Gakuin University\, Tokyo \n  \nIn this presentation\, there is a discussion of the Concealed Information Test (CIT)\, a technique that does not detect deception\, but detects memory for crime details in suspects. Japan is the only country where the polygraph deploying the CIT is widely applied to criminal investigations. The CIT is argued by its proponents to reveal whether suspects possess knowledge of specific details of a crime. Furthermore\, the CIT is said to be able to extract crime-relevant information that investigative organizations have not yet uncovered. \nDespite being described as valid\, the CIT is rarely used in real criminal investigations worldwide. One potential reason is that many practitioners have not known how to apply the CIT in the field. In this presentation\, we introduce the field use of the CIT in Japan\, where the CIT has been widely used for criminal investigations. About 100 polygraph examiners deal with about 5\,000 cases per year. These examiners administer the polygraph after completing a training course at the Forensic Science training centre\, affiliated with the National Research Institute of Police Science\, Chiba. This presentation also reflects developing research as how Japanese polygraphers use the CIT in criminal investigations\, alongside the efficacy of the CIT. \n  \n\nExamination of a Child Victim at a Criminal Trial\n\nMarina Okamoto\, Public Prosecutor\, Japan \n  \nVictims are usually vulnerable\, and the need to mitigate their burden is a critical issue. This need is applicable in investigation and examination at a trial\, and this problem is shared among Japanese public prosecutors. Especially when the victim is a child\, the public prosecutors must take even greater care not to cause secondary damage. Thus\, it is an ideal way not to let such a victim appear in court and testify before a defendant. However\, defendants and defence lawyers do not always agree with a child victim’s written statements to be examined as evidence at a trial; instead\, they often demand the victim’s examination. In such a situation\, what ways can a public prosecutor take to protect the victim? This presentation focuses on how Japanese public prosecutors obtain evidence from a child victim and prove the fact in a trial without the appearance of the victim in court while ensuring the right to a fair trial of a defendant. This presentation will illustrate in what circumstances the use of written statements can be admitted as an alternative way of the examination of the victim and what problems the Japanese criminal justice system has\, in particular\, on the protection of a child victim\, by introducing a case that a presenter has experienced as a public prosecutor. \nNote that this presentation is based on the presenter’s personal view\, and it is not an official opinion of the Japanese Public Prosecutor’s Office. \n  \n  \n\nInterviews conducted by the police and prosecutors with autistic adults in Japan: A review of the literature and directions for future research\n\nDave Walsh\, De Montfort University\, Leicester \nGraham Brooks\, University of West London \nGavin Oxburgh\, Northumbria University. \nMakiko Naka\, Riken Scientific Research Institute\, Saitama \nAkira Kyo\, Kwansei Gakuin\, University\, Osaka \n  \nDevelopments have occurred in Japan over the last 20 years or so in the training of the police and their public prosecutors in the interviewing of victims\, witnesses and suspects of crime\, being important features of criminal investigations.  In some cases\, individuals may manifest characteristics prevalent on the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) scale\, though identification of individuals with this disorder has been found to be problematical to police officers and public prosecutors. Whilst there is some literature on autism in Japan\, with regard to its criminal justice system\, studies examining interviews conducted by the police and\, in turn\, public prosecutors with autistic adults remain scant. To begin to address this deficit in our understanding\, we provide an overview of the literature concerning contemporary techniques when interviewing adults on the ASD scale during criminal investigations\, offering lessons learned from research conducted around the world. We also review how public prosecutors in Japan are trained to deal with adults on the ASD scale.  Implications for practice in Japan are discussed. \n  \n\nApplications of Legal Psychology in Japan: Current practice\, research knowledge\, and future directions\n\nRobin Orthey\, Aoyama Gakuin University\, Tokyo \nLiam Satchell\, University of Winchester \nJoanne Rechdan\, Bournemouth University \nAkira Kyo\, Kwansei Gakuin\, University\, Osaka \nMakiko Naka\, Riken Scientific Research Institute\, Saitama \nDave Walsh\, De Montfort University\, Leicester \n  \nThe aim of legal psychology is to produce evidence-based recommendations for improving the quality of justice systems. It should be noted\, however\, that the majority of the research in this area is dominated by American and European experimental laboratory research.  This research on perception\, memory\, and social processes has influenced guidelines on topics such as how to evaluate the credibility of testimony or overcome biases in decision-making around the world. Given the high stakes influence that legal psychology research can have\, we should be cautious in the messaging around of our research. Henrich\, Heine\, and Norenzayan (2010) note that almost all experimental evidence in Psychology is based on samples from Western\, Educated\, Industrialized\, Rich\, and Democratic (WEIRD) societies and question the generalizability of said findings to other contexts and cultures. Similarly\, applied research focusing on best practices in and around criminal investigations is mainly concerned with practices in WEIRD societies. As part of a series of interactions between Western-based legal psychology academics and practitioners in the Japanese legal system (the authors)\, we have come to realize that a stronger understanding of the current Japanese practice in the context of contemporary literature would be of benefit to both audiences. \nOur objective here is to highlight unique features of the Japanese criminal justice system and place them in the context of the current scientific literature\, as well as to identify opportunities for future research. We have focused our review on the more popular areas of research in legal psychology. We start with investigative interviewing practices in Japan (取り調べ – torishirabe)\, firstly by discussing police interviews with victims and witnesses\, before going to onto give coverage of the interviewing and interrogation of criminal suspects. We will begin each section by describing Japanese practice as reported by practitioners\, followed by an overview of the scientific literature pertinent to that process. Together\, both parts can aid scientists in identifying novel research problems and practitioners can gain insight in the scientific validation of modern practices. Finally\, we propose future directions for scientific inquiry to promote collaboration between practitioners and scientists. \n  \n  \n\nDetails of a new project to assist international research and practice collaborations\n\nDave Walsh\, De Montfort University\, Leicester \nRay Bull\, University of Derby \nIgor Areh\, University of Maribor\, Ljubljana \n  \nIn 2016\, Walsh and his editorial team had two volumes published that covered investigative interviewing/interrogation research and practice in 28 countries. Those countries where research and practices had been covered extensively in the extant literature were all included. Additionally\, other countries were included where much less (or no) prior research had been conducted. Consistent with\, and complement to\, the aims of iIIRG\, and the recent UN declaration of the ‘Mendez principles’ that advocates non-coercive interviewing\, this presentation will announce the forthcoming ground-breaking publication of the “International Handbook of Investigative Interviewing Interrogation” covering 40-45 countries\, none of whom were covered in the previous volumes (or indeed have been barely covered elsewhere).  Moreover\, the presentation will present details of a timely ambitious project\, underpinned by the Handbook\, that aims to create a systematic approach to initiate collaborative projects between researchers in those countries\, where research studies and knowledge of practices are less developed\, as well as creating networks for collaborative projects between researchers in these countries and those where research is more established and knowledge of practice is more fully understood.  Our aim over a four-year cycle is to supplement the efforts of others with a bank of projects that enhances global research and practice. \n  \n\nSymposium Discussants:\n\nTom Ellis\, University of Portsmouth \nMasayuki Otake\, The Legal Attaché at the Japanese Embassy in London \n

SUMMARY:Practitioner Case Study: Evidence-Based Suspect Interviewing Practices In Action: A Case Review of the Adam Strong Interview
DESCRIPTION:In May 2021 Adam Strong was sentenced to life in prison for the murders of Rori Hache (2017) and Kandis Fitzpatrick (2008) in Oshawa\, Ontario\, Canada. Although there was forensic evidence showing he had dismembered and disposed of Rori’s body\, including the recovery of her body parts from Strong’s apartment\, there was no direct evidence demonstrating Strong had murdered her or Kandis. The key to the conviction\, as outlined on the judge’s ruling\, was the admissions Strong made during a 12-hour interview with Detective Paul Mitton of the Durham Regional Police. The purpose of this case study is to analyze Det. Mitton’s approach using video clips taken from the original interview with Strong. This includes the use of rapport-building tactics\, employing open-ended questions and silence\, ensuring proper legal procedures were followed\, and effective evidence presentation. Despite never obtaining – or even pushing for – a confession\, Det. Mitton was able to obtain enough inculpatory admissions from Strong to secure a conviction. It is hoped that this case review can serve as an example of how using evidence-based information-gathering suspect interviewing practices in real-world investigations can lead to interviews that are both highly effective and legally admissible.

SUMMARY:Oral Presentation: For the Record: Assessing force-level variation in the transcription of police-suspect interviews in England and Wales
DESCRIPTION:Title: For the Record: Assessing force-level variation in the transcription of police-suspect interviews in England and Wales \nAbstract: \nRecordings of police-suspect interviews in England and Wales are rarely played in court\, despite being a key evidence source. More often\, interviews are presented in the form of a ROTI (Record of Taped Interview) transcript. However\, research (Haworth\, 2018; Richardson et al\, 2022) has shown that significant alterations can occur as the interview is converted from audio into a transcript. Furthermore\, no knowledge exists as to how much variation exists between individual police forces regarding ROTI production.\nThis paper forms part of a wider project examining ROTI transcription practices. Freedom of Information requests were sent to all English and Welsh forces containing questions relating to current ROTI transcription practices and transcriber training. The questions facilitated an assessment of both the level of variation between forces\, and whether specific ROTI transcription problems can be linked to higher-level police processes. The findings illustrate that there are numerous differences between individual forces regarding both ROTI production and training procedures. The findings also suggest that differences in force-level approaches to ROTI transcription could produce substantially different evidence for courtroom use. The findings are used to suggest improvements in ROTI production and training procedures that could subsequently improve the consistency of interview evidence in court. \nReferences \nHaworth\, K.

SUMMARY:Cooperative or Representative Interviews in Japan: Multi-agency investigative interviews of alleged victims of child abuse
DESCRIPTION:Title: Cooperative or Representative Interviews in Japan: Multi-agency investigative interviews of alleged victims of child abuse \nAbstract: \nIn Japan\, it used to be the case that an alleged victim of child abuse was referred to the Child Guidance Center\, where a social worker interviewed the child. If the case was serious\, the child was sent to police\, where a police officer conducted several interviews\, followed by a few more interviews by a prosecutor at the prosecutor’s office before prosecution. Through the repeated interviews\, the child’s memory deteriorated and the psychological burden accumulated. In 2015\, in order to reduce the number of interviews\, three agencies issued a document to recommend a multi-agency team approach toward interviews. Such interviews are called cooperative or representative interviews. I will talk about the rationale of the multi-agency team approach of investigative interviews and how they are conducted\, as well as how the interviewers\, back-staff and supporters in the team are trained. Finally\, I will describe the current situation: Although the number of cooperative/representative interviews has increased\, only one percent of them are used as evidence in court due to the hear-say rule. The possibility of using video-recorded interviews as evidence is now discussed in the Legislative Council on sexual crime\, but an issue is the legal definition of “investigative interviews”\, i.e.\, the components or conditions of interviews that make the interviews be used as evidence.
