There is a big difference in doing a Voir Dire on a regular case as opposed to a death penalty case…you're literally dealing with life or death. Prosecutors need to go into great depth to secure the appropriate jury with the ability to request the death penalty upon conviction.

This experience will demonstrate the intense process of being vetted as a death penalty case juror by using a real case. Attendees will be on the hot seat in front of a seasoned prosecutor as she grills them on their backgrounds, personal experiences and opinions to see if they can sit on a death-qualified jury.

Gold VIP Only, pre-registration is required. VIPs will receive registration instructions via email at least two weeks prior to the convention.
