Law for Forensic Scientists

There are numerous criminal laws, criminal procedures, and expert testimony books, but no single one combines these key issues for the forensic science programs in the U.S. This book is a readable textbook for one-semester law or criminal law courses for forensic science students. It will cover criminal law broadly, focusing rather on the topic areas most important and salient to forensic scientists and students within forensic science including: moot court scenarios, 4th amendment search and seizure law, scientific evidence, expert testimony. All FEPAC accredited forensic science programs are required to teach at least 10 contact hours on criminal law.
