ALLENTOWN, Pa. – Cedar Crest College cut the ribbon on a brand new Expert Witness Training Center!

It’s meant to help train forensic science students, law enforcement, first-responder professionals, and those who are often asked to provide testimony in court to become effective expert witnesses.

The space includes simulated crime scenes, labs and a mock courtroom.

A $608,000 dollar grant from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Assistance helped make this happen.
