2021 Criminal Law CPD Series
Sydney Law School
This new 2021 Criminal Law CPD series, presented by the Sydney Institute of Criminology is made up of 7 webinars. Topics include: criminal behaviour in the digital age, consent and culpability in sex cases involving adults, irreducible life sentences, preventive detention; and neurotechnology and the criminal law.
Full attendance at this webinar series is equal to 10.5 MCLE/CPD units. View flyer here.
Access to the internet and mobile digital devices enable new forms of social harm, criminal behaviour and challenges to policing and regulation. The ease with which images and information can be shared anonymously means that hate networks, terrorist and extremist organisations can expand, child abuse materials and intimate images can be disseminated, and illicit substances and weapons can be bought and sold.
This webinar will provide an overview of:
- new forms of harmful or criminal behaviour on the open web and darknet;
- relevant legislative provisions including Crimes Act 1900 (NSW), Crimes (Domestic and Personal Violence) Act 2007 (NSW); Commonwealth Criminal Code;
- relevant case law; and
- challenges to policing and regulation.
This webinar will assist legal practitioners involved in the prosecution and defence of online or digital offences.
