We talk about a criminal trial as if it was a single event but of course that’s not entirely true. A trial is made up of multiple parts starting with jury selection and going all the way to the delivery of a verdict. Not all of these stages of a trial always get attention but each of them can be tremendously important. In fact, some attorneys claim that a trial can be won or lost in the jury selection process– and that, of course, happens before any case is made to that jury. That is why we have decided to launch a new occasional series we are calling Anatomy of A Trial. In each segment, we will talk to an experienced trial lawyer who will go in depth with us about a particular piece of a trial.
Our expert today is Tim Sledd. We will be talking with Tim about closing arguments. How important are these? How should defense attorneys and prosecutors approach constructing a closing argument? Who gets the final word?

Áine, do you remember those moments right before we started The Murder Sheet?

Also later on there was a lot of “I can’t quit my real job and become a podcaster!” Heck, you had some struggles … I remember you saying we should pull the plug while we hung around a parking lot eating burgers … this was during the COVID-19 pandemic, mind you.
