    Corruption Prosecutions and Their Pitfalls: Recognizing, Engaging, Surviving and Overcoming the Maze of Obstacles and Challenges for Law Enforcement
    Based on experience and marked by periodic anecdotes, this presentation analyzes the often-unexpected (and sometimes subtle but critical) obstacles to effectively investigating and prosecuting public corruption cases of all types. These range from economic bribery and extortion cases resulting from the (often-reluctant) complicity of business people who comply with illegal demands under duress, to the need to earn and keep the hearts and minds of the press and public upon whom law enforcement depends, to the equally important task of steeling oneself and staff against universally, increasingly-proactive and aggressive offensives by subjects and defendants. It also addresses the necessity of investigators, prosecutors, and staff to aggressively discharge their Brady and other disclosure obligations, while utilizing methods and maintaining lifestyles which are unfailingly fair and beyond reproach, with little or no room for error.
