See the case
like a prosecutor.
Review the evidence, identify the weaknesses, anticipate the defense, and decide whether the case should be charged. If you don't see the file, you don't know the case.
How a case gets built.
Five steps. The same five steps a real charging attorney walks through every morning before deciding what hits the docket.
- 01
Open the case file
Receive a sealed folder. Reports, photos, statements — exactly what would land on a prosecutor's desk.
- 02
Review the evidence
Witness statements, forensic findings, chain of custody. Look for what's there — and what isn't.
- 03
Make the call
Probable cause? Trial-ready? Decline? Document your reasoning before you see the verdict.
- 04
Watch the prosecutor build
See exactly how a charging attorney would frame this case, witness by witness.
- 05
Anticipate the defense
Cross-examination, suppression motions, alternative explanations. Every attack the defense will run.
