Managing digital material in grooming gang investigations, 28 September 2026

 

Our workshop explores contemporary issues, challenges and best practice around the management of digital material in grooming gang investigations.

​

Complex grooming gang prosecutions are digitally intensive, multi-defendant and highly scrutinised. It is vital that the digital material is properly managed from outside and through to the trial to prevent defence challenges.

 

The workshop will focus on the following key themes.

• Evidence

• Disclosure

• Current and historic investigations

• Managing Volumes of evidence

• Establishing clear Parameters

• Proportionality

• The importance of the Investigation Management Document (IMD)

 

• Held online via Teams

• Certificates of CPD available

 

Our speaker

The workshop will be led by Jocelyn Lodge, an experienced barrister who has worked for a law enforcement organisation advising on disclosure strategies on a number of complex investigations where disclosure obligations have been challenging.
