About this Event
Zero Abuse Project's new 2.5-day course, DNA on Trial: From Collection to Conviction, delves into the rapidly evolving science and technology surrounding DNA evidence, underscoring the critical role it plays in prosecuting complex cases. Participants will gain invaluable insights and practical tools essential for navigating the intricacies of DNA evidence, facilitated by seasoned trial attorneys and forensic science experts.
Through engaging workshops, attendees will enhance their understanding of forensic processes. Moreover, the course offers a hands-on component, enabling prosecutors to engage with a mock crime scene, replicating common challenges encountered during evidence collection.
Central to the course is an opportunity for experiential learning in a mock courtroom setting, equipping prosecutors with the skills to effectively present DNA findings in court. By fostering a clear and compelling narrative, participants will learn to articulate complex evidence persuasively, facilitating jury comprehension and securing convictions.
Participants are required to attend the full 2.5-day course, which includes courtroom exercises specifically designed for prosecutors. Attendance is capped at 36 individuals and is exclusive to prosecutors or law enforcement personnel.
Please note: While law enforcement personnel are welcome to attend, the majority of the content is tailored towards prosecutors.
