An Empirically Based Comparison Of American And European Regulatory Approaches To Police Investigation, Christopher Slobogin
Michigan Journal of International Law
This article takes a comparative and empirical look at two of the most significant methods of police investigation: searches for and seizures of tangible evidence and interrogation of suspects. It first compares American doctrine regulating these investigative tools with the analogous rules predominant in Europe. It then discusses research on the American system that sheds light on the relative advantages and disadvantages of the two regulatory regimes.
