Police institutions are the first and main gate in law enforcement efforts. First, the police institution in charge of carrying out each criminal case’s enforcement, then the next stage will be determined by the police. The practice of law enforcement so far tends to be retributive justice, so that only a few cases can be resolved in the police investigation process. Restorative justice appears by offering various advantages, including a simple settlement process, involving both parties, both perpetrators and victims, and the role of a third party to mediate, so that cases can be resolved according to the agreement. The police, as the first institution in the law enforcement process, had already issued regulations regarding the application of restorative justice, as a form of law enforcement efforts to change retributive law enforcement. The purpose of this research judicially examined the regulation of restorative justice at the police investigation phase in line with the enactment of the regulation of the Chief of Police Number: SE/8/VII/2018 concerning the Application of Restorative Justice in the Settlement of Criminal Cases and the Regulation of the Chief of the Indonesian Police Number 6 of 2019 concerning Criminal Investigation.

In recent years, the involvement of prosecutors in post-conviction proceedings has begun to change from a strictly adversarial to a more investigative and remedial posture. Particularly in the United States, prosecutors’ offices have taken the affirmative responsibility to conduct post-conviction investigations of closed cases. A growing number of exonerations occur because prosecutors themselves agree to review new evidence of innocence or locate it themselves. Prosecutors have created specialized conviction integrity units tasked with reviewing such cold cases. They have created units to conduct other types of audits and reviews to investigate systemic issues, including regarding forensic evidence and police misconduct. They have even, in some offices, conducted investigations of their own conduct. Although most offices may follow a traditional model in which work largely consists in defending final convictions, there has been a notable trend towards experimentation with reconception of the post-conviction role of prosecutors. This chapter describes each of those changes and describes their implications for post-conviction criminal procedure.

And Performance

As a massively popular crime drama, Crime Scene Investigation has circulated influential images and narratives that suggest that the processing and analysis of forensic evidence can be done in a swift and timely manner. The claim of such a CSI effect is based on the relative absence of waiting scenes within the series. This article examines the series’ multiple representations of time and waiting, linking the absence of waiting to the construction of forensic scientists as powerful figures of moral authority. In the episode Grave Danger, however, waiting is notably imagined as something that must be experienced and endured as a result of conviction. It is made analogous to death, and embodied through horizontality as well as by feminized waiters. Because the feminization of waiters also characterizes the representation of television viewers, I end by examining how the role of waiting in Crime Scene Investigation is intertwined with the viewer’s experience of watching the planned flow of network television. Ultimately, this article argues that the study of televisual waiting requires a recognition that images and narratives on network television emerge out of and depend on waiting as representation, experience, and performance.
