FORENSIC SCIENCE APPLIED - A LEGAL & INVESTIGATIVE INTRODUCTION
This one of a kind workshop explores the facts of actual cases where forensic science played a key role, and it explores the challenges, opportunities, and issues surrounding the use of forensic science in modern criminal investigations and their associated legal proceedings.
What is forensic science and how is it applied in actual criminal cases? This workshop gives the answers. But first, we must recognize that there is nothing mystical or magical about scientific evidence. It is a tool that gives a voice to physical items that cannot speak for themselves. In the hands of competent, responsible professionals, forensic science makes our criminal justice system more fair and reliable. In the wrong hands, it can incriminate the innocent or misdirect authorities away from dangerous perpetrators.
About the Instructor:
Mr. John Collins' work and expertise were developed during a 20-year forensic science career in which he emerged as among the most respected and outspoken advocates for the improvement of leadership and administrative practices in forensic science organizations. In 1996, John was one of the primary forensic scientists assigned to the investigation of the bombing of the Olympics in Atlanta and the serial bombings that rocked the city in the months afterward. Over the years, his career brought him face to face with some of the most complex and disturbing cases imaginable.
The fee for this course is $600
