BLUE HAMMER TRAINING

Even the strongest investigation can fail if officers are not properly prepared for court. This course provides officers and detectives with practical guidance on how to effectively prepare for testimony, present themselves professionally in court, and avoid common mistakes that can weaken a case during trial.

Drawing on the experience of R. Josh Player, who has tried more than 50 jury trials—including over 40 felony jury trials—in both state and federal courts, this course offers practical lessons from the courtroom. Officers will gain valuable insight into how prosecutors prepare cases, how defense attorneys challenge officers during cross-examination, and how juries evaluate officer testimony. The result is greater confidence in the courtroom and stronger outcomes for the cases officers work hard to build.
