Children can be unreliable witnesses, and they are especially vulnerable to questionable interview practices. However, in some crimes like child sexual abuse, children may be the only person capable of providing testimonial evidence. States must balance the needs of bringing criminals who target children to justice and ensuring that due process is upheld to reduce the chances of false convictions. The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention has published a set best‐practices for the interviewing of children to achieve this balance. This article conducts a statutory analysis to determine if states are currently following the recommendations of the OJJDP.

与我对话:对监管警察对儿童受害者进行采访的法规的分析

儿童可能是不可靠的证人,他们尤其容易受到可疑面试行为的影响。但是,在诸如儿童性虐待之类的某些犯罪中,儿童可能是唯一能够提供证明证据的人。各国必须平衡将以儿童为目标的犯罪分子绳之以法的需求,并确保维护正当程序以减少错误定罪的机会。少年司法和预防犯罪办公室发布了一套最佳做法,用于采访儿童以实现这种平衡。本文进行了一项法定分析,以确定各州当前是否遵循OJJDP的建议。
