Abstract
In recent years, sociologists and criminologists have begun to play a significant role as expert witnesses in civil lawsuits involving the actions of security, police, and corrections personnel. As liability experts in negligent security litigation, forensic criminologists increasingly opine on crime foreseeability, professional security standards of care, and issues of proximate cause. Social framework testimony is also introduced to provide fact finders with current social scientific thinking on the specific issues pertinent to tort litigation. Administrative negligence in the form of negligent hiring, negligent training, negligent supervision, and other managerial errors has also drawn the attention of forensic criminologists. Additionally, public criminal justice officials have been sued over use-of-force incidents, miscarriage of justice, suicide by cop, allegations of prejudicial profiling, jail suicides, prisoner health care, and conditions of confinement. Forensic criminology contributes considerable substantive knowledge on these topics which should help judge and jury resolve the issues at bar.
