Publisher's summary

In this instant classic, a veteran prosecutor and award-winning author explains how to ensure key pieces of evidence are admitted in a criminal trial.

Morley Swingle, a veteran of 178 jury trials and 111 homicide cases, provides the foundation “predicate” questions required to successfully present evidence in a criminal trial, from routine fingerprints, DNA, chemical testing results, business records, surveillance recordings, firearms testing, autopsy results, diagrams, blood toxicology, photo lineups, jail calls, drug dog alerts, confessions, and prior convictions, to newer types of evidence like cell tower dumps, geofence warrant results, social media postings, text messages, license plate reader data, cell phone records, GPS location information, digitally enhanced photographs, and hearsay under the forfeiture by wrongdoing doctrine.

Swingle supplies the questions and the legal reasons why those specific questions are necessary.
