Can you believe your ears?
You can’t always trust what you think you hear. That includes juries who might misinterpret court recordings and could put innocent people in jail.
Join Professor Helen Fraser, expert in forensic transcription and Director of the Research Hub for Language in Forensic Evidence at the University of Melbourne.
Helen will play real court recordings of high profile cases to show: How misconceptions about the nature of speech cause injustice in criminal trials – and how being a little more skeptical can open a more humane view of human nature.
From 5.30pm, full bar and gourmet pizza available. Presentation starts at 7pm followed by discussion.
