From cop to defence lawyer: Patrick Schmidt Pt. 1

Former police prosecutor turned defence solicitor Patrick Schmidt sits down with Gary to reveal what really happens when police face a good defence lawyer in court and why so many officers struggle in the witness box.

With 8 years as a police prosecutor and now defending clients full-time, Patrick has seen both sides. He breaks down how defence lawyers pick apart police evidence, why arrogance and emotion get officers into trouble, and why preparation is everything when you take the stand.
