About this document
Stress Management for Court Testimony by Michael V Valiente is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Testifying in court can be stressful for law enforcement officers due to fading memories over time and potentially leading questions from defense attorneys. To prepare, officers should practice courtroom testimony, prepare thorough reports soon after incidents, review their own reports and notes, and meet with prosecutors to understand likely questions. They should also get sufficient sleep, remain unbiased and concise in testimony, and avoid discussions about the case with others.
