Abstract

Lex Forensica Integrata is a pioneering jurisprudential doctrine that unifies three distinct but interconnected pillars of justice — Traditional Law, Modern Law, and Forensic Science. Traditional law provides the moral and customary framework; modern law offers codified statutes and constitutional safeguards; and forensic science ensures empirical validation through evidence-based methods. By integrating these domains, this theory seeks to create a justice system that is ethically grounded, procedurally sound, and scientifically accurate. The approach addresses the historical tension between normative justice and factual truth, proposing a model where legal determinations are reinforced by scientific validation without compromising cultural values or constitutional guarantees. This doctrine can be adopted globally, with necessary jurisdiction-specific adaptations, to improve judicial accuracy, public trust, and cross-border criminal justice collaboration.
