Improving the quality of evidence from adult complainants of sexual assault

Join us for an evening talk by Dr Nina Westera from Griffith University. Members and non-members both welcome.

The presentation will examine how evidence-based practice in the interviewing of adult complainants of sexual assault can be used to improve the investigation and prosecution in these types of cases.

Dr Westera, a former detective with the New Zealand police force, is a lecturer in criminology and criminal justice. She specialises in the application of psychology to law and her interests include investigative interviewing, criminal investigation and detective work, eyewitness testimony, the investigation and prosecution of sexual and violent offenders, and jury decision making.
