I'm guessing you'd have an expert regarding the infamous Zimbardo experiment to lay groundwork his initial psychological mindset. Following may be an expert on the psychological effects of torture. Finally you can use someone like Elizabeth Loftus to further state the fallibility of eyewitness testimony, even without torture.
Do you know how much of this case will be on westlaw? Is it a sealed case?
Will you continue to work in this area or go to something less stressful after its all over?

What kind of experts do you use for something like this?
Have you received a lot of highly classified documents in discovery?
To what extent can you compel document production? How do you even know these files exist?!

Not OP, but I am a lawyer.
Start taking practice LSATs, and learn how to think in the way the questions are set up, logically and analytically. A huge problem in the legal field right now is employment out of law school. It's harder now than ever to get a job out of law school, unless you manage to get into a tier one school. As such, your LSAT score is pivotal.
Also see if your public defenders office has any internships available, most do because they really need all the help they can get. I did this for a bit and its looks great on your application to law school as well as your resume later on.
