Vilkova T.Yu. Freedom of assessment of evidence in criminal procedure: legal basis, content, guarantees

Abstract: This article examines the content of the principle of freedom of assessment of evidence in criminal procedure; two of its interconnected aspects are being analyzed: prohibition of external interference into assessment work of the court, prosecutor, investigator, detective, and at the same time allowing them internal freedom of assessment of evidence. The author analyzes the guidelines for the evidence assessment, put in place to eliminate arbitrary and unfounded decisions, which include: the duty of the subjects of evidence assessment to adhere to the positions on mandatory proof of separate circumstances by specific types of evidence; prohibition of use of certain data as evidence; on relieving from procedural work with regards to proving facts of general knowledge, prejudicially established facts, legal presumptions and circumstances admitted by both parties; setting conscience as a moral compass during assessment of evidence, etc. The author formulates the conclusion that the consequence of freedom of evidence assessment is the possibility of a guilty verdict without presence of direct evidence.

Keywords:

Freedom of evidence assessment, Principle, Criminal procedure, Evidence, Belief, Judiciary independence, Polygraph, Prejudice, Presumption, General knowledge
