Animal Cruelty
Investigations 101
Are you just starting out investigating animal cruelty? In this course, we will discuss how to get a cruelty investigation started. Topics include; history of cruelty, active & passive cruelties, 4th amendment, plain view doctrine, Texas penal codes related to crimes against animals, search warrants, the adjudication process, and more. We will also spend time discussing various situational studies to better determine when education is the best route instead of jumping straight into prosecution. We will end day two with case study activities where students will work through an animal cruelty case investigation.
