    Product Description


    Prosecuting and defending drug cases can, on the surface, appear straightforward where the cases mostly involve professional police investigators and expert witnesses. The legal nuances in both proving the basic elements and in defending the case are, however, complex. Many involve conspiracies with multiple participants, and some amount of prior police investigation. As a result, a successful prosecution or defense involves a thoughtful strategy and careful preparation.

    Join our experts as we discuss the legal nuances in prosecuting and defending drug cases and explore the best practices for how to introduce the many varieties of physical and electronic evidence.
