Elon Law Professor Michael Rich discusses his scholarship on emerging technologies and predictive models for crime in the 2015 Elon University President's Report.
Rich is the Jennings Professor of Law at Elon.
“How do the neat technologies that we think of as being ways to improve our world in the future, what do those mean for criminal law and do they raise really special concerns that we haven’t thought of. I’m trying to answer that question,” Rich says in the Report.
