Forensic Science Revolution: 24 Years of Change in England & Wales #researchawards #fosawards
“The Development of Forensic Science in the Criminal Justice System of England and Wales (2000–2024): A Systematic Review”
We explore critical milestones such as the transformation of the Forensic Science Service (FSS), the growth of DNA profiling technologies, digital forensics expansion, major legal reforms, accreditation frameworks, and the increasing importance of quality assurance. The review also examines challenges—including funding cuts, backlog crises, commercialisation, and reliability concerns—alongside recommendations for strengthening forensic science as an integral part of the criminal justice system.
