520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Can the criminal justice system achieve justice based on its ability to determine the truth?<br/>Drawing on a variety of disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives, this book investigates the concept of truth – its complexities and nuances – and scrutinizes how well the criminal justice process facilitates truth-finding. From allegation to sentencing, the chapters take the reader on a journey through the criminal justice system, exposing the marginalization of truth-finding in favour of other jurisprudential or systemic values, such as expediency, procedural fairness and the presumption of innocence.<br/>This important work bridges the gap between what people expect from the criminal justice system and what it can legitimately deliver.
