Course Description

Starting in 1974, 13 unsolved murders occurred in California. The investigators were stumped as to who was responsible. Investigators then stated using public genealogy databases and matched that with the victims’ relatives. Their efforts finally resulted in identifying Joseph James DeAngelo as the killer. Using DNA information obtained from genealogical sites, investigators have solved many cold cases and helped identify several Jane and John Does. This class examines the constitutional and legal issues with using such information in court.

How to Register with Zoom

1. Log in to your account
2. Click on the webinar you wish to register for from your list of Purchased CLE Programs (in the "My Courses" menu in the left blue column in your account)
3. Fill out the short Zoom registration sheet and click on “Register” to complete
4. You will then receive an email from Zoom, which will have your personal link to access the webinar.

Important Information Regarding Registration

1. Do not wait until 2 minutes before the webinar to register with Zoom if possible, as you cannot log in until you get the email from Zoom and while email is usually instantaneous, we all know that isn’t always the case.
2. You must be watching the webinar in order to get credit.  Most states accredit webinars differently than other formats and in order to get webinar credit, you must be watching, not just listening using the audio only link.
3. There will be poll questions every hour, as many states require them.  If you don’t answer the poll question and your state requires them, we can’t award credit for that hour.  The poll questions are NOT obscure, as Joel always announces them before he runs them, and he reads them out loud.  If your state requires you answer them, please don’t miss them.  Please note that you will not be able to answer poll questions if you are using an audio only link, which is another reason you need to be WATCHING (not just listening to audio only version) the video presentation.

How to Get Credit for the Webinar

1. All webinar certificates are done by hand, so you will not get them when the webinar is over.  We have to cross reference your log in and log out times and your poll questions to figure out how much credit you earned.
2. You will receive your certificate of attendance within a week of the webinar and it will be sent to the email address you used when you registered for the webinar.
3. Comedian of Law will report to all states that are provider report states.  If your state is a self-reporting state, we will not (like FL, IA or MO for example).  Hours are usually reported right before certificates of attendance are sent, but the email you receive will explain.
