Leveling the Playing Field: Turning Tech-Facilitated Abuse Into Tech-Facilitated Convictions
Course Description
Convicting offenders who sexually abuse children is challenging. Sexual abuse occurs in private, is committed by trusted adults, and is perpetrated against victims who have limits on their ability to disclose. Technology is a game changer. While it is a means to abuse children, tech is also a means to achieve justice. This presentation provides guidance on how to make tech work for victims by showing how to find powerful evidence, defend admissibility of that evidence, and how to present a persuasive case for juries and judges.
