Course Description
Starting in 1974, 13 unsolved murders occurred in California. The investigators were stumped as to who was responsible. Investigators then stated using public genealogy databases and matched that with the victims’ relatives. Their efforts finally resulted in identifying Joseph James DeAngelo as the killer.  Using DNA information obtained from genealogical sites, investigators have solved many cold cases and helped identify several Jane and John Does. This class examines the constitutional and legal issues with using such information in court.

How to Register with Zoom

  1. Log in to your Comedian of Law account

  2. Click on "My Courses" in the left hand blue column.

  3. Click on the webinar you wish to register for from your list of “Purchased CLE Programs”.

  4. Fill out the short Zoom registration sheet and click on "Register" to complete.

  5. You will then receive an email from Zoom, which will have your personal link to access the webinar.

  6. PLEASE NOTE: Sometimes the success page from Zoom doesn't display right in the window on our website (by Freestone Learning Management System), please check your email, including your spam/junk folder for your Zoom email, as 99% of the time, your registration was caught by Zoom and the email was sent. If you haven’t received the email within an hour, please contact our office at info@comedianoflaw.com and we will have Zoom resend it or help you register with Zoom.

Important Information Regarding Registration

  1. Please do not wait until 2 minutes before the webinar to register with Zoom if possible, as you cannot log in until you get the email from Zoom and while email is usually instantaneous, we all know that isn’t always the case.

  2. You must be watching the webinar in order to get credit.  Most states accredit webinars differently than other formats and in order to get webinar credit, you must be watching, not just listening using the audio only link.

  3. There will be poll questions every hour, as many states require them.  If you don’t answer the poll question and your state requires them, we can’t award credit for that hour.  The poll questions are NOT obscure, as Joel always announces them before he runs them, and he reads them out loud.  If your state requires you answer them, please don’t miss them.  Please note that you will not be able to answer poll questions if you are using an audio only link, which is another reason you need to be WATCHING (not just listening to audio only version) the video presentation.

Written Materials

Written materials are available in your COL account after you have purchased a webinar. 

  1. Log in to your Comedian of Law account

  2. Click on "My Courses" in the blue column on the left

  3. Find the webinar in the "Purchased CLE Programs" section and click on it

  4. The written materials will then be under "Downloadable Materials"

How to Get Credit for the Webinar

  1. All webinar certificates are done by hand, so you will not get them when the webinar is over.  We have to cross reference your log in and log out times and your poll questions to figure out how much credit you earned.

  2. You will receive your certificate of attendance within two weeks of the webinar and it will be sent to the email address you used when you registered with Zoom for the webinar.

  3. The bar information you enter into Zoom is the bar information that will be on your certificate of attendance. Please be sure that information is correct.

  4. We cannot submit attendance to states that we did not have the webinar approved in. We also do not produce certificates of attendance for states that the webinar was not approved in, without a special request. If you want one with another state info on it, please let us know by email at info@comedianoflaw.com. Please note that the certificate will only note the additional bar information, no other information will change as the course wasn’t approved in the state.

  5. If you are submitting your COL hours to another state (that COL didn’t have prior approval in) and they request a timed agenda, course description and/or speaker biography, please let us know by email at info@comedianoflaw.com and we will be happy to send you that information.

  6. Comedian of Law will report to all states that the course was approved in, that are provider report states.  If your state is a self-reporting state (like FL, IA or MO for example), we will not report your hours .  Hours are usually reported to states right before certificates of attendance are emailed.
