Abstract
The article deals with the use of special knowledge in conducting an investigative experiment, analyzed the procedural status of a specialist and the mechanism for its involvement. In order to fulfill the tasks of criminal justice, the criteria for the use of special knowledge in the course of carrying out this investigative action have been determined.
The activity of a specialist proceeds within the scope of the investigator’s authority when applying special knowledge to him.
A specialist in the conduct of an investigative experiment acts as an assistant investigator in the solution of a number of specialized knowledge that requires professional knowledge of the special knowledge and skills of their application and do not require expert research.
In the activities of pre-trial investigation bodies, investigative experiments are widely used among investigative actions aimed at uncovering crimes. Investigative experiment is an investigative action that requires preparation, a clear organization and constant management of all experiments during its conduct. Therefore, the involvement of a specialist with special knowledge and technical means, under the supervision of an investigator, can only positively influence the quality of the performance of this investigative action.
The use of special knowledge in conducting an investigative experiment can be carried out taking into account the relevant criteria for their application. The use of special knowledge in conducting an investigative experiment has the following criteria: procedural and non-procedural. The procedural criteria for the use of special knowledge in conducting an investigative experiment is the provision of the criminal procedural legislation of Ukraine regulating the conduct of this investigative (investigative) action. Non-procedural at the same time is divided into forensic and general scientific criteria.
Based on the foregoing, we can conclude that in order to ensure the effectiveness of conducting an investigative experiment, it is necessary to consider the participation of a specialist and the use of special knowledge in carrying out an appropriate investigative action. Separation of the criteria for the use of special knowledge in conducting an investigative experiment, in our opinion, is advisable, since each criterion is expressed through a highly specialized field of knowledge and the direction of their use.
