SUMMARY:5/8/24 - How to be an Expert Witness in Animal Cruelty and Custody Cases - The AAWA
DESCRIPTION:Three legal experts will discuss: \n\nthe role of the animal expert in court proceedings\, including testimony in court as well as advising and educating attorneys\npreparation for testimony\, including cross-examination\nbest practices for the forensic witness\nwar stories and current trends\n\nThis session will reduce the fear of the unknown and instill confidence in testifying by explaining what is expected of an expert witness and outline things one should and should not do on the stand.  Veterinarians often are especially reluctant to become involved with cruelty cases because of the fear of testifying in what they consider a potential adversarial situation and may feel they must make the entire case or speak in absolutes. \nTarget audience: veterinarians\, animal control officers\, anyone who may engage in an animal cruelty or custody investigation and be asked to testify as an expert. \nSpeakers: \n\nDon Cocek\, APA Fellow\, Association of Prosecuting Attorneys\nGillian Deegan\, Prosecutor\, Botetourt County\, Virginia\nMelinda Merck\, DVM\, Veterinary Forensics Consulting\n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://bit.ly/49wCJ0o
