CLE: 2 Credits
A team of prosecutors from the Cook County State’s Attorneys Office will discuss the multifaceted trial strategies, traditional and electronic evidence in a high profile homicide case. This case study is divided into three parts: an overview of the case, DNA evidence and the use of complex DNA profiles and probabilistic genotyping, and strategic use of cell phone and other computer-generated evidence. Our speakers will cover Cell Cite HX, as well as downloads such as internet searches, contact lists, and the use of software to download and map out vehicle information.
