Sim in Crim - NEW SECOND DATE ADDED

23rd January 10:00 to 15:30
Sim in Crim – a simulated policing experience following a case through the initial stages of the criminal justice system. 60 minute interactive seminar. 23rd Jan and 30th Jan.
This activity is offered as part of Future Me Week - five days of exciting opportunities to develop your skills, deepen understanding, gain experience and take steps towards an exciting Future You.

DUE TO OVERWHELMING POPULARITY WE ARE ADDING A SECOND DATE ON JAN 30th TO ENSURE NO ONE MISSES OUT! THIS IS FILLING UP QUICKLY TOO – SO DON’T DELAY!

SIGN UP BELOW!

Join Criminology, Sociology and Law in the CAVE where you will take the role of police officers helping a veteran detective (who may not be the best at his job) to follow police procedure through a series of interactive tasks:

  1.  Police briefing – we talk the new officers through the case of a serious incident that has occurred. We show body cam footage of a raid on a drug dealer’s home. Using the interactive screens, you’ll work with one another to decide what evidence that was captured is direct, what is indirect and at what point you have reached the threshold for arrest and charge.
  2. Design a prison cell – For the next stage of the CJS, we enter the custody suite of a prison and ask you to create a prison cell you feel is fair and has the appropriate furniture and fixtures. We then show what an actual cell looks like.
  3. Police interview procedure – we’ve seen the arrest, we’ve seen the holding cells, it’s time to interview our suspect. We’ll watch an interview and then use the interactive screens to place steps of the procedure in order. Reminder: if you get these wrong, you have to start again as your interview will be inadmissible in court!

We look forward to seeing you there!
