Police interviews with suspects and witnesses provide some of the
most significant evidence in criminal investigations. Frequently
challenging, they require special training and skills. This
interaction process is further complicated when the suspect or
witness does not speak the same language as the interviewer. A
professional reference that can be used in police training or in
any venue where an interpreter is used, Police Investigative
Interviews and Interpreting: Context, Challenges, and Strategies
provides solutions for the range of interview demands found in
today's multilingual environments. Topics include: What
interpreting is, the skills required, and the role of interpreters
in any job context Investigative interviewing in law enforcement
Concerns about interpreter intervention and its impact on interview
outcomes The value of word-based over meaning-based interpretation
in police and legal contexts Nonlinguistic factors that can have an
impact on the interpreting process The book explores the
multi-faceted dynamics of conducting investigative interviews via
interpreters and examines current investigative interviewing
paradigms. It offers strategies to help interpreters and law
enforcement officers and provides examples of interpreted interview
excerpts to enable understanding. Although the subject matter and
the examples in this book are largely limited to police interview
settings, the underlying rationale applies to other professional
areas that rely on interviews to collect information, including
customs procedures, employer-employee interviews, and insurance
claim investigations. This book is part of the CRC Press Advances
in Police Theory and Practice Series.

the profession.
