Navigating the Complexities of Homicide by Vehicle Cases

Experienced prosecutors Kelly Callihan and Nate Boob will be leading a specialized training session on homicide by vehicle cases. This VIRTUAL training will focus on how victim service providers and their agencies can effectively support victims' families from the investigation phase, to the decision on charges, and through any potential prosecution.

Topics Covered:

• Overview of Applicable Crimes and Challenges in Charging
• Gain insights into the complexities of criminal charges and how to effectively navigate them.
• Collaboration Between Prosecutors and Victim Advocates
• Learn the significance of working together with victim advocates to support victims' families through this difficult time.
• Explanation and Updates on CHRIA Changes
• Understand the Criminal History Record Information Act (CHRIA), including recent updates and their effect on these types of cases.

This training session will also go beyond the technical aspects of prosecution. Stephanie Urban and her mother, Tracy Del Vecchio, will be joining us to share their journey following the loss of their sister and daughter, Olivia Red. Olivia was killed on May 31, 2018, when her vehicle was struck by a wrong-way driver who was under the influence.

This session qualifies for 2 PCCD training hours.
