court records
Chasity asked:


The assignment is: Find a current or past court trial (via internet or television) where an investigator or officer is called to testify. Evaluate the officer’s role and if he/she follows the guidelines on pp. 129-34 of the text. Then evaluate one-fourth to one-half of the officer’s court testimony. In 700-1,050 words, identify and summarize the trial you observed and evaluated.

    Go to your local Courthouse and see the Clerk of the Court.

    Trial records are public records - you probably want a criminal case.

    Ask for the file - it will have the evidence in it and may have the transcript, especially if it was a case that was appealed.

    You can read it there or pay to have it copied.

    You can ask the Court Clerk for more help.
