Until recently, there has been little research on the effect of new technologies or the CSI Effect on offenders or prisoners. The questions of how prisoners approach plea bargaining, what role new technologies have played in the decision to enter into a plea, what impact popular media has on offenders' knowledge of crime scene management, and what offenders' views are on different types of forensic evidence and databases remained unanswered. 'Tracing Technologies: Prisoners' Views in the Era of CSI' seeks to address that gap. |
