Digital Technology As A Global Trend Of Criminal Justice

Abstract

When studying globalization processes, it is necessary to mention digitalization of criminal procedures, changes generated by new technologies. Scientific and technological progress helps find objective answers to the issues of examination and reexamination. The impact of global technology on criminal examination has many aspects. We will focus our attention on application of 3D technologies (3-D modeling), psychophysiological examination using a polygraph, and the use of a computer tomograph for forensic medical examinations. The article examines existing problems (legislative gaps): the use of 3D technologies in criminal procedures, court procedures, the role of animation as evidence; the status of opinions of the polygraph experts; application of computer tomographs in forensic medical examinations. Application of these technologies in foreign criminal and court procedures was analyzed. Conclusions about implementation of scientific achievements and their use in criminal procedures were drawn. A mechanism for solving these problems has been developed. The article aims to study issues of commissioning and production of forensic examination, the role of global technologies for forensic examination, and digitization of law.
