Courtroom Testimony

6 Hours

The detection of criminal activity and the subsequent arrest of suspects are for naught if the arresting officer cannot skillfully and purposefully present evidence in a court of law. This course is designed and presented by a prosecuting attorney who will offer constructive and insightful advice as to how officers can be more effective in the courtroom. Topic areas will include: Elements of a Good Witness; Qualifying as an Expert Witness; Content of Expert Testimony; and Trial Testimony Hints and Tactics for Drug Cases; Property Crime Cases; and Sexual Assault and Violent Crime Cases. The course begins at 9:00 a.m. and concludes at 4:00 p.m.
