In the inaugural episode of The Hearsay Evidence Podcast, we are joined by Prof. Yvonne McDermott Rees from the University of Swansea, a distinguished legal scholar specializing in evidence and proof. Our discussion delves into her scholarship and main research projects. Prof. McDermott Rees sheds light on her current research within the TRUE project, which critically examines digital evidence and its implications on the justice system. As deepfakes become increasingly sophisticated, they pose a significant challenge in distinguishing reality from fabrication, thereby threatening the integrity of evidence. Through an engaging conversation, we unravel some of the complexities of this issue and contemplate the legal frameworks that might help navigate this murky territory.
