DESCRIPTION:Fact finding and evidence in criminal procedure has increasing
 ly gained  attention from other\, non-legal disciplines\, such as statisti
 cs\, legal  psychology and legal epistemology. Those disciplines provide u
 seful insights as  to how to arrive at a decision on the facts and possibl
 e pitfalls. However\,  those insights don&rsquo\;t always find their way i
 nto legal practice. Judicial  concepts and doctrine don&rsquo\;t seem to m
 atch with those insights. In this  presentation these problems are address
 ed from a juridical (continental) point  of view. Where do the (systemic) 
 weaknesses lie in the judicial system and in  doctrine when it comes to th
 e use of evidence and what are potential hindrances  in the use of probabi
 listic reasoning and narratives in criminal procedure?
