I have worked in the Criminal Justice System for over 20 years now. I’ve defended, prosecuted and also been a legal adviser to magistrates.
In all of that time, the government have been looking for ways to speed up the system. After all, justice delayed is justice denied.
The current vogue is to look at the American system and to see what we can learn from them.
But I reckon we should model ourselves on the system in Thailand. They can investigate, arrest, gather forensic evidence and take statements, hold a court hearing, convict and sentence all in the space of three weeks.
Wow, technology does move pretty fast!
