What: As video and audio become more prevalent in the discovery and investigation of criminal case defense, there are times when a video or audio file needs to be enhanced or clarified. So the criminal defense attorney can decide whether to reach out to an expert in the field, the speaker will discuss: the types of enhancements that are possible; clarifying visual details with examples; audio enhancement capabilities; and finally why these details are helpful in a client’s defense.
