Strangulation: From Statute to Sentence by Kelsey McKay and Hon. Judge Michael Denton (ret).

Description: With laws formally codified in penal codes across the country, convictions are rare because barriers still exist and inhibit the effectiveness of these important laws. This workshop, presented by a former prosecutor and defense attorney and family violence judge will include tips for all practitioners in the criminal legal system including charging, common defenses, and effectively translating cases to a judge or jury. From setting bonds to picking juries and using experts, the presenters will provide practical tips to evaluate and strengthen a case and move them from probable cause to beyond a reasonable doubt.
