On Friday, February 21, 2025 NACOLE welcomed Casey Yunko for a webinar designed for non-experts navigating the complexities of digital video evidence.

This session delves into the technical hurdles and limitations critical to responsibly examining and processing multimedia evidence for investigative purposes. Explore the specialized skills, tools, and workflows required for higher-level video investigations, and uncover why effective video analysis demands more than basic technical knowledge. By the end, you’ll gain a deeper appreciation for the intricacies of this field and understand why proper training is essential to avoid missteps. This webinar won’t make you an expert, but it will leave you with a lasting impression: video examination examination is not a task for the untrained—it’s a meticulous and demanding forensic science.

This is a standalone webinar and not a continuation of a previous webinar.
