The Prosecuting Attorneys Association of Michigan will present the virtual “Lethal Weapon 2: Crash to Courtroom” training on Tuesday and Wednesday, December 1-2, via Zoom.
This two-day course focuses on increasing the ability of Michigan prosecutors and crash reconstruction officers to communicate effectively and confidently in the courtroom. The course includes mock court exercises with actual jurors using a crash case scenario.
Presenter Professor John Kwasnoski has reconstructed over a thousand crashes and has testified in numerous cases of national significance.
The goals of this training include:
• Understanding the importance of credibility building during testimony.
• Developing skills that will enhance the connection between the crash reconstruction witness and jurors.
• Gaining insight into defense trial strategies and understanding the “rules.”
There is no fee to attend this event. Registration is limited to 30 attendees (15 prosecutors and 15 police officers) and is online only.
Deadline to register is Tuesday, November 24. To register, visit www.michiganprosecutor.org and click on “training.”
