Kontrowersyjne nowe technologie w kryminalistyce
Controversies around new technologies in forensic sciences

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to analyse the jurisprudence, legislation, and professional literature in the field of selected new technologies and to identify risks, challenges and benefits associated with the implementation of new methods into the practice. Proponents emphasize the need to provide new measures to fight crime to facilitate investigations, and hence increase the level of detection. The most common allegations are potentially abuse, violation of the right to privacy and the right not to know, inaccuracy and unreliability of results, discrimination, lack of rules determining processing and storage of personal data. In the future artificial intelligence may become a permanent element of the criminal justice system, there is a need to develop a legal and ethical framework for the use of new technologies in criminal trials.
