Today I'm talking to the Honorable Robert Serra, a retired District Court Judge from here in Kansas City. You don't want to miss this judge's point of view on officers testifying in court and a few stories he shares from his time on the bench. I ask what would be the worst mistake a cop could make when testifying and also what the judge's advice is to new officers about to take the stand.

Thanks to U.S. Marshal Ron Miller for making the original recommendation to interview Judge Serra. You can hear our interview with Marshal Miller in Episode 015: https://heychaplain.buzzsprout.com/1792621/9543984-015-marshals-explained-ron-miller-u-s-marshals-service
