Enjoying an afternoon of sumo at the Kokugikan in Tokyo!

The time had come the 80 year old said to redefine “artificial markers” that delineate the aging process and return to school. “In my mind and soul I’ve always had a yearning to go back. It’s a desire that’s never gone away”. Bravo I say! theguardian.com/world/2024/nov…

Enjoyed English singer/songwriter Paul Carrack at Royal Albert Hall on Friday night. The last night of his 50th anniversary tour. An exceptional talent!

@CraigCarys Congratulations Professor Craig!

@andytgriff @SDrizin I can attest to the serious negative impact a lack of corporate memory has on developing evidence based interviewing practices in a police institution, experienced it first hand.

A single false confession,a critical judicial opinion, and muckraking journalism led to the downfall of NZ's revered interrogator and his once highly regarded interrogation technique CIPEM. stuff.co.nz/nz-news/350396…

@robinparker_law $5 for a book by a distinguished scholar of legal history is quite the bargain. I imagine you will find his discussion of the rise of defence counsel in the trial process to be of particular interest. Enjoy the book!

While visiting the National Gallery in London a nice attendant told me Room 17a would open in 10 min and I would be able to see something special. The room contains only one work. When it opened I was the only one there. For about a minute I was alone with DaVinci. Incredible!

@DeanneSowter So far😄

Pleased to be in London attending the HG Hart workshop on jurisprudence at the Institute of Advanced Legal Studies overlooking the beautiful Russell Square. Looking forward to a great learning experience over the next two days!

@yournikt London is wonderful!

@Interview_Group I LOVE London 🙌🏼!! Keep us posted on new insights from the workshop.

@ProfEastwood @iiirgofficial Well done Joe!

Truly humbled and honoured to receive the 2024 academic excellence award from @iiirgofficial - I guess that's what happens when you have excellent colleagues, students, and practitioner partners....

Speaking to mystery writers about the realities of criminal investigation at the Festival of Authors in Toronto. Should be fun! festivalofauthors.ca/event/critical…

An extraordinary and troubling rebuke of police testimony by judge who invokes fictional character Sergeant Schultz of “I know nothing” fame. canlii.ca/t/k4kvn

Over the past few years, multiple UN member states (including Canada) have indicated their support for a more ethical, more reliable, science-based approach to investigative questioning by agents of the state justsecurity.org/95683/non-coer…

A fantastic example of not letting one’s age define one’s potential! ctvnews.ca/video/c2920755…

Well deserved!

Great educational opportunity!
