What Litigators Need to Know | 2.0 MCLE
“What Litigators Need to Know about the ‘Science’ Behind Police-Use of Force Expertise: Force Science under Daubert”
Expert testimony is central to nearly every civil and criminal case involving police use of force but how solid is the science behind it? In this eye-opening session, criminologists Geoffrey Alpert and Ian Adams, along with Professor Seth Stoughton of the University of South Carolina School of Law, present findings from their recent empirical review published in Police Quarterly. Their research critically examines the 24 studies that form the scientific foundation of the Force Science Institute (FSI), a frequent source of expert witnesses in litigation. Through rigorous analysis using bibliometrics and established quality-assessment tools, the presenters reveal that much of FSI’s research fails to meet key reliability standards under the Daubert test, including peer review, known error rates, and general acceptance in the scientific community. These findings have major implications for how attorneys evaluate, challenge, and present expert testimony in court. This session is a must-attend for litigators, public defenders, prosecutors, and anyone involved in police accountability or public safety law.
