This book presents a topical approach to comparative criminal procedure, focusing
on the roles of public prosecutors, police, victims, and defense attorneys in the inves¬
tigation of criminal cases and trials up through the judgment phase. Separate chap¬
ters are dedicated to search and seizure; wiretapping and other privacy invasions; the
interrogation; exclusionary rules; hearsay and the right to confrontation; the pre¬
sumption of innocence at the trial stage; and the roles of professional judges, juries,
lay assessors and magistrates in the decisions relating to guilt and sentencing.
Unique in Thaman s approach is his use of high court jurisprudence in English trans¬
lation to elucidate the European approach to important, and often controversial,
areas of criminal procedure, as well as his linking of criminal procedure with its roots
in substantive criminal law. Thaman looks at the early reactions to crimes commit¬
ted flagrantly or in secret as the historical roots of modern criminal procedure. The
approaches of the old inquisitorial system and the use of torture to solve circum¬
stantial evidence crimes are also presented. Special emphasis is placed on how the
presence of lay judges in the form of juries or mixed courts has impacted the devel¬
opment of the law.
