Ann Weatherall's #ForensicCA2024 #EMCA presentation shows how instructors in feminist self-defence classes 'animate' legislation about what constitutes self-defence or (by contrast) construct extreme (illegal) cases of vengeful or disproportionate violence

Alexandra Kent presents hers, Magnus Hamann's, and Jo Meredith's #EMCA study of non-emergency policing messaging in the UK showing IM senders seek assistance, and how chat handlers use links, sign offs, and other closing moves to foreclose the police-relevance of the problem

Søren Sandager Sørensen presents his #ForensicCA2024 talk on 'Hva tenker du' ('what are your thoughts') in Norwegian police interviews and how this is used to solicit longer explanations - but also the pragmatic problems of such 'open' question formats with inexperienced suspects.

Kate Steel opens the third #ForensicCA2024 panel with an #EMCA study of difficult disclosure sequences in domestic abuse police call-outs highlighting how 'barriers' to disclosure are fraught with & interactionally patterned by complex and conflicting accountabilities

Lorenza Mondada presents hers and Fernanda da Cruz' #ForensicCA2024 paper on how 'the bones are made to talk' through the interactional, embodied manipulations of materials and other practices of forensic investigators from an #EMCA perspective.

Christopher Elsey & Hannah Jones present their #ForensicCA20204 talk on crisis and mental health disclosure in professional sport and how different accounts (celebrity social media, institutional risk assessment, police/ambulance work) are constructed in public #EMCA

Terry Au-Yeung and Robin Smith's #ForensicCA2024 presentation shows how a police PR statement after a racialised assault by police officers works to destabilise/dilute the moral accountability of the police officer actions as constructed by quote tweets of the viral video #EMCA

Our second panel of #ForensicCA2024 starts with Michael Mora-Rodruitez showing the normative orientation to compliance in police's request formats during border vehicle checks, and the escalation dynamics of high-entitlement/directive forms during trouble/non-compliance #EMCA
