REFLECȚII ASUPRA UTILIZÃRII TEHNICII HIPNOZEI ÎN INVESTIGAREA CRIMINALISTICÃ A INFRACȚIUNILOR

The paper deals with the issue of using hypnosis techniques in crime investigations. The author examines the criminal procedure implications of using such a forensic technique with reference to national legislation and the EU regulations, not avoiding to examine the controversial aspects in the legal literature and jurisprudence; however, the author concludes that the expertise would seem more appropriate to allow the use of hypnosis technique, provided that a clear distinction between hearing a person under hypnosis and the expertise of its discourse under hypnosis is achieved.
