From crash scene through pretrial hearings, trial and punishment, this book is indispensable for officers and prosecutors investigating or trying an intoxication manslaughter case. Officers will find invaluable the charts and checklists for collecting information on the scene to assist with collision reconstruction and trial. Prosecutors won't be able to live without the charts and checklists for grand jury and trial preparation. Written by Richard Alpert, Intoxication Manslaughter includes caselaw, practice pointers, charts (including traffic offenses, license suspensions, discovery and probation conditions), sample pleadings and voir dire questions. Two chapters written by experts Tim Lovett (collision reconstruction) and Dr. Maurice Dennis (expert witnesses on intoxication and driving) make this book an indispensible tool for officers and prosecutors at all levels of experience.
