Forensic Psychology A Pathway to Justice

This groundbreaking study explores how courtroom questioning styles and memory recall impact the reliability of eyewitness testimony in Nigeria's judicial system. Dr. Tersoo Shaapera presents a simulated trial experiment that reveals how cross-examination and psychological factors can distort memory and compromise justice. Blending theory, law, and empirical evidence, the book calls for the integration of forensic psychologists into court proceedings-a practice standard in the U.S., U.K., and South Africa. A must-read for lawyers, judges, law students, psychologists, and justice reform advocates.
