Campbell offers an extensive overview of wrongful convictions, bringing together current sociological, criminological, and legal research, as well as current case-law examples. For the first time, information on all known and suspected cases of wrongful conviction in Canada is included and interspersed with discussions of how wrongful convictions happen, how existing remedies to rectify them are inadequate, and how those who have been victimized by these errors are rarely compensated. Campbell reveals that the causes of wrongful convictions are, in fact, avoidable, and that those in the criminal justice system must exercise greater vigilance and openness to the possibility of error if the problem of wrongful conviction is to be resolved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1 – Introduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Eyewitness Identification and Misidentification\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: The Role of Legal Professionals in Contributing to Wrongful Convictions: Police\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4: The Role of Legal Professionals in Contributing to Wrongful Convictions: Prosecutors, Defense Counsel, and the Judiciary\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5 - False Confessions\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 6 – In-custody Informants\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 7 – DNA Evidence: Raising the Bar\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 8 –Forensic Evidence and Expert Testimony\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 9 – Conventional Remedies through the Courts and Conviction Review\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 10 – Commissions of Inquiry: Lessons Learned\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 11 – Compensation: The \"Obstacle Course\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 12 – The Impact of Public Lobbying on Wrongful Convictions: The Role of the Media, Lobby Groups and Innocence Projects\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 13: Lessons from Other Jurisdictions\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 14 – Final Conclusions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52545906802968,"sku":"9780802094063","price":30.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/miscarriages-of-justice-in-canada-causes-responses-remedies-paperback-softback-9780802094063","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
