Dog Scent Evidence

Dog Scent Evidence

 

So, a dog fingered (or should it be “nosed”) your client?  The prosecutor wants to have the dog handler tell the jury how really reliable bowser is.  And you don’t know what to do.  Well, you’ve come to the right place.  We’ll show you how to send this doggy data packing by challenging its admissibility under Frye or Daubert. 

Begin by reading Michael Saks' declaration, which offers a scholarly analysis of the available research. Then check out Jennifer Friedman's California Kelly-Frye motion. These are "defender-only" materials. To find out how to qualify to view defender-only materials, click here.
