2024 Jury Selection in Domestic Violence Cases Webinar

Description

1.00 Standard CLE Credit - No matter how strong your case is, prosecutors should never underestimate the importance of selecting a jury. Misconceptions and myths about domestic violence can prejudice jurors against your case, affecting their ability to assess the facts. Some jurors, no matter what they say in jury selection, may simply never be able to convict an offender, even if the evidence has proven the case beyond a reasonable doubt. In this presentation, attendees will learn how to address public opinion and to plan a strategy for choosing jurors who can fairly evaluate evidence.
