What I'm Doing

For my internship this Fall, I will be interning at the District Attorney's Office, gaining experience in criminal justice. The internship will last from March 12th-30th. This internship will give me great experience so that I may pursue a criminal justice degree in college. Basically what I will be doing is following a case from start to finish and seeing what it will be like to investigate a criminal. I will also be taking tours of all the Durango Police Facilities including the Sheriffs Office, the PD and the Jail. I will be going to trials frequently to see the court system side of law, and how a trial works. I am super excited and can't wait until March.

Last Day, 3/29/12

Well it’s finally here, the last day.  Today was interesting because I went to felony court that took two hours more than expected because of a visiting judge that took a great deal of time to get through each case.  It wasn’t that he was a slow guy he just talked through every detail of the each case.  Which I would guess is great for the defendant but quite annoying for Christian and his fellow attorneys.  After that I met with Christian and went through my presentation with him and Nicolas’s case file.  He got a kick out of Nick’s case and really like the presentation board.  We talked a little about how it was great working there and that he was so proud of how well I worked over the course of the three weeks.  How I had such a great experience and it was immensely valuable.  I once again said thanks to both Christian and Todd Risberg.  I think I’ll miss working with all the great people at the DA’s.  I also never properly thanked the support staff so I thank all of you that helped me with my project.  Thank you all it has been great.
