HOW WITNESS INTERVIEWING TECHNIQUES INFLUENCE EVIDENCE ft. Professor Becky Milne
Episode description
In the case of major incidents such as terrorism, other crimes or an accident, emergency services rush to respond and save lives. But in this episode of Life Solved, we find out how the stress and pace of high-risk scenarios can influence the behaviour and memories of witnesses to such incidents.
Professor Becky Milne and her colleagues at the University of Portsmouth know this kind of witness experience, and the way in which interviews are conducted, can make a big difference to the evidence gathered. That’s essential in preventing further crime and seeking justice.
Becky applies her innovative research working with emergency responders, from paramedics to police investigators, to call-handling in control rooms. She explains how the important psychological insights gathered from incidents such as the 2017 London Bridge Terror Attack have led her to develop a more effective evidence-gathering system, hand in hand with forces.
