SANE Nurses & Examinations in Criminal Cases
CLE Credit: Up to 4 hours of self-study CLE credit, where authorized. Please confirm with your state's CLE commission to ensure this program is available for self-study CLE certification.
Program Summary: A SANE nurse practitioner is not merely a technician who collects evidence, but is a knowledgeable health care provider who understands every aspect of the alleged victim's experience. By the very nature of the job title, this person accepts and believes the version of events provided by the victim and is mandated to work with law enforcement and testify on behalf of the prosecution. They are not looking for evidence to exculpate your client...that is your job, and with the proper training you can persuasively attack them as a witness, challenge their findings and win your cases.
This comprehensive program will show you where most criminal defense practitioners fail in defending their clients from accusations of sexual assault, and how you can avoid these pitfalls in your next case. You'll learn how to aggressively cross-examine SANE Nurses, identify common mistakes made in their examination methods and findings, how to decipher the sexual assault report and notes from the case, how to file motions in limine to limit the potential influence of SANE Nurse testimony in your case, how to frame questions in voir dire to decipher a juror's opinions and attitudes about expert witness testimony and common FAQ's and terminology required to understand the reports acquired during discovery in your case. This expert program will also uncover the complex scientific concepts behind Serology and DNA analysis, reducing them to easy-to-understand ideas that can be easily deciphered by defense counsel.
