Explore the challenges involved with no body homicide investigations. Most start as missing persons cases; the suspect’s head start coupled with the absence of the victim’s body leaves gaping holes in the investigation. Join us to hear from experienced instructors as they provide the framework and tools to build a prosecutable circumstantial case—regardless of the age of the case—from proving the victim is dead using established practices such as victimology, interviews, documents/records/digital footprint to search strategies and best practices in documentation. This training will also provide established prosecution strategies that maximize the likelihood of success. During instruction, there will be an opportunity to share your case as a class participation case study exercise.

Technology has transformed how we investigate crime scenes, and mobile devices are central to this evolution. This webinar will explore how cell phone data—collected through cell site dumps, area dumps, and real-time device “pinging”—can identify suspects, locate witnesses, and support or refute alibis. We'll explain how signals like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and other device emissions—digital DNA—can be documented and analyzed to identify unknown individuals at the scene. Whether in a crowded public area or a remote location, these invisible digital breadcrumbs can provide key leads in investigations.
