Question One
The criminal justice system has some essential components, which should be incorporated during the trial process. Presentat
ion and review of evidences related to a particular case is one of such factors, which ultimately determine the course of verdict (Ram, 2017). The debate is at times placed over the efficacy of the evidences presented in the court. The arguments against the privilege of evidences that criminal justice system takes are given as evidences can be manipulated as well as the proof of affirming someone guilty of the crime can become hostile. In both the conditions, the overall course of the trial process is affected. However, in spite of the fact that evidences have loopholes that prosecutors and the defending lawyers take advantage, the criminal justice system should have the conventional approach towards the privilege of evidences because in the absence of the same, determination of the case will be assumed as impractical and driven from the intellectual approach of the jury only (Ram, 2017).
The above concept can be understood by the role that policing procedure has to play in the process of collecting, analyzing and presenting the evidences before the jury. The police have traditionally been charged with the task of determining whether a person should be alleged with a criminal offence during a criminal investigation and whether that person is guilty of it (Lara‐Millan & Van Cleve, 2017). It follows, therefore that the police have been treated usually as well as historically, in an adversarial rather than inquisitional manner as an agent for the ruling and the prosecution. The police can either collect or beware of a large amount of material such as CCTV footage or witness testimony during any such investigation that it does not intend to use as it does not help their case, it is stuff that is not used so far.' It is the prosecution's knowledge of this information and subsequent lack of disclosure to the defense whose case it will support, whereas the very crux of the disclosure debate is to insist on defense disclosure of its own case (Lara‐Millan & Van Cleve, 2017).
Moreover, the evidences facilitate the opportunity to the prosecutor that how he or she is taking up the case i.e. the role of a prosecutor in the process of presenting the case is controversial; the limits with which the prosecutor has to function are undefined. In criminal justice system, prosecutors can manipulate the evidences, as per their choices and preferences and at the same time, they can refer to the cases similar to the present one they deal with in order to prove their point. In such crucial conditions, it is up to the jury to determine whether or not, the evidences are manipulated or not. The determination of the guilt is thoroughly dependent over the ability of reviews done by the jury and to follow it ideally, they need to have the leverage of examining the facts and evidences both. Thus, evidences are...
