Burning Questions
The Criminal Defense Association of Michigan presented “Junk Science — How to Defend an Arson Case” on Friday, September 6, at the Macomb Office of Public Defender in Mt. Clemens and online via Zoom. Presenting the program was Marc Fennell (center), an International Association of Arson Investigators Certified Fire Investigator (IAAI-CFI). Fennell discussed the effective use, benefits and limitations of defensive strategies including the preparation for trial, questioning a public fire investigator on the stand, fire investigative compliance with NFPA 921, and using NFPA 1033 against the fire investigator. On hand to welcome Fennell were CDAM Executive Director Ramona Sain (left) and Macomb County Bar Association Executive Director Kelly Bennett.
