No Face, No Case? Think Again: Prosecuting Your Case Without a Victim
Free webinar for prosecutors:
One of the most challenging aspects of DV prosecution is a victim who is not willing to testify or participate in the prosecution, often due to the actions of the defendant. This webinar will present ways to go forward-and win-without the victim. We’ll discuss forfeiture by wrongdoing, hearsay exceptions, outcry witnesses and other strategies for defeating the “no face, no case” challenge.
Presenters:
Neillie Fields, Deputy DA, 2nd JD (Denver DA’s Office)
Anne Kelly, Senior Deputy DA, 20th J.D. (Boulder DA’s Office)
CLE credit application in progress.
