As you may have seen from previous post the conference was attended by interpreters from across the world. Simon was asked some questions, to which he gave guidance using his expertise from working in the field, but also from training and educating as a detective and also through Zakons training programmes. He also draws upon experience on academic research around vulnerability, suggestibility and perception in witnesses.
