Webinar Summary
Have you ever heard an officer or detective complain because the prosecutor let the defendant plead out to a “sweetheart deal” which should have resulted in a more serious sentence?
Have you ever wondered why one detective’s cases get filed while some other detective’s cases get declined?
It might simply be a matter of the officer or detective’s ability or inability to testify effectively. After all, no one wants to hand the ball to someone who is going to fumble it on the five-yard line. You might be a highly skilled, hardworking investigator, but if you can’t deliver on the stand, your skills aren’t complete.
In this two-hour webinar, Special Agent Everett C. Babcock will review the courtroom processes which law enforcement personnel may take part in over their career. This training provides advice and tips to help the attendee testify more effectively and confidently from the witness stand.
Special Agent Babcock has a unique insight on this topic, developed from three decades of service with the Kansas City Police Missouri Police Department, and from his years of experience working alongside prosecuting attorneys during his employment with the District Attorney’s Offices in both the second and twenty-second judicial districts of the State of Oklahoma.
Topics Covered Include:
- Effective courtroom testimony preparation as part of your investigation
- Courtroom appearance and demeanor
- What happens during the trial before and after you testify?
- Dealing with “stage fright”
- It’s not about you, it’s about the case
