Program Summary: Getting jurors and the court to believe that police officers are mistaken, dishonest or not credible is the key to obtaining a not guilty verdict in many criminal cases. Questioning a police officer's training and experience, their implicit/explicit biases, assumptions of risk and power, recollections about criminal incidents and shoddy or lazy investigation techniques is critical to building a powerful defense.
This presentation will provide criminal defense lawyers with powerful tools and techniques to highlight and question police credibility in a variety of criminal cases. You'll learn how to voir dire on police credibility, cross-examine police officers, deliver powerful opening statements, discover effective impeachment techniques, understand and litigate common police interrogation methods, challenge false confessions, emphasize prior misconduct, highlight contamination and sloppy evidence collection, attack police credibility through suppression motions and much more.
Comprised of NACDL's highest-rated and highest-quality speeches from recent CLE trainings, this special compilation will give you the tools necessary to effectively question and discredit police officer conduct in your next trial.
