“Pitfalls of Crime Scene Processing and Testifying”.
Speaker: Clark Davenport
Time: 12:00 Noon - 1:30pm
Crime scene processing, including geophysical surveying, is a critical component of criminal investigations, yet it is fraught with potential pitfalls that can undermine the integrity of the investigation and the subsequent legal proceedings. Mr. Davenport's presentation will outline key issues requiring meticulous adherence to legal standards, clear communication, and maintaining professional integrity at all stages of the investigative and judicial processes and share the challenges with testifying on the results of crime scene processing.
Davenport, a Registered Professional Geophysicist, is a recognized expert in the utilization of remote sensing and geophysical techniques to locate clandestine graves and hidden evidence. Clark Davenport's career spans more than 55 years of planning, managing, and performing remote-sensing surveys for criminal, environmental, groundwater, geotechnical, mining, and archaeological investigations on six continents. Since 1987 he has pioneered the use of remote sensing in criminal investigations and has personally assisted on more than 200 criminal investigations in 32 states and 7 countries. Mr. Davenport has a degree in Geophysical Engineering from the Colorado School of Mines, an Associate Degree in Criminal Justice from Red Rocks Community College, and a Certificate of Completion of the four-year Episcopal Education for the Ministry Course, Sewanee Seminary, University of the South. He is a past instructor at the Colorado Law Enforcement Training Academy, the Community College of Denver, Metropolitan State College of Denver, Regis University, and for 10 years an invited Special Topics Instructor at the FBI Academy.
