 Subject: [napcdvrp] Facing challenges in the prosecution of Alcohol
Facilitated Sexual Assault (AFSA), TWO-PART WEBINAR SERIES


  

Facing challenges in the prosecution of Alcohol Facilitated Sexual
Assault (AFSA), TWO-PART WEBINAR SERIES. Presented on Wednesday,
February 23 and Friday, February 25, 2011, by Anna E. Craprotta, Sexual
Assault Project Attorney for the Prosecuting Attorneys Association of
Michigan.  

We invite the Michigan Prosecutor Community to "attend" TWO webinars
this month, each of which will provide you with the tools necessary to
better prepare for the difficulties faced in the prosecution of alcohol
facilitated sexual assaults.  

Please join us for this SPECIAL TWO-PART WEBINAR SERIES on Wednesday,
February 23 and again on Friday, February 25, 2011, from 12:15 PM-1:00
PM, via webinar. 

 Unfortunately, when the victim is under the influence at the time of
the sexual assault, confidence in the case is jolted from the very
beginning. 
A vast majority of the non-stranger sexual assaults being reported
involve alcohol use.  Many victims feel shame or self-blame for the
assault.  Many victims experience a decreased ability to remember or
perceive what happened.  These are all challenges that prosecutors can
defeat by using an offender-focused approach to AFSA cases. 

Program:  Our featured panelist presenter, Christopher Mallios, is an
Attorney Advisor for AEquitas: The Prosecutors' Resource on Violence
Against Women.  Mr. Mallios presents on trial strategy, legal analysis
and policy at the local, state, and national level.  For more than 10
years, Mr. Mallios prosecuted crimes involving violence against women.
Here are just a few of the topics that will be covered:

1) Making the charging decision and evidence-based prosecution 

2) Analyzing credibility and corroboration

3) Offender-Focused prosecution

4) Use of experts on intoxication

5) Overcoming defenses

Please feel free submit questions relating to this topic, prior to the
webinars, at: aecraprotta at gmail.com, so that we may address them during
the webinar.
