Landing the Fourths: Proving A Case with Court, Land and DNA Evidence

Judy Russell

"Landing the Fourths" refers to a legal strategy in a criminal case where the prosecution aims to secure a conviction by presenting a strong combination of evidence from three key areas: court documents, physical evidence from the crime scene (land), and DNA analysis. The goal is to cover all potential angles to prove a defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, thereby "landing" a conviction on all fronts. Join us as Judy Russell, The Legal Genealogist, presents about using this strategy in researching your ancestors.
