Program Summary: Far too often, defending charges of sexual assault and child abuse can be daunting — but with the right tools, it doesn’t have to be. This 14-hour program is your chance to hear from premiere speakers, and learn cutting-edge strategies and techniques to come away ready to take on the government. Featured speakers include Jerry Buting, whose experience in defending Steven Avery, memorialized in “Making a Murderer”, have made him a visible champion of justice. The government has the power and limitless resources to employ the full machinery of the state to scrutinize our clients: forensic computer analysis, DNA, forensic interviews of children, sexual assault exams, risk evaluations, and seemingly endless investigative techniques. Now is the time to equip our arsenal and fight back. This comprehensive training is designed to help criminal defense practitioners stay ahead of the curve with plenty of practical tips on handling cases with DNA, false confessions, memory and intoxication issues and expert psychological testimony.
