'Minority Report' and Discussion
We will screen 'Minority Report' on Wednesday 13th February, 5pm in Taylor C11.
In the future, criminals are caught before the crimes they commit, but one of the officers in the special unit is accused of one such crime and sets out to prove his innocence.
Is this such a far-fetched proposition? Following the movie, Alessia Vacca and Ahmed Hassanein will moderate a brief discussion about the contemporary erosion of fundamental criminal law notions such as the requirement of both a mens rea and an actus reus for the commission of a crime.
