Law in Action: Recording the Criminal

on Third Programme

by Eryl Hall Williams, Reader in Criminology in the University of London
A series of talks commenting on current legal issues

There is growing concern over the use of tape recordings in the courts. How far are they admissible as evidence in criminal proceedings? Clearly there are great dangers in using them at all; so to what extent should they be used? Mr. Hall Williams considers these questions and compares the practice here with that in the United States.
