Tomorrow, Tuesday, March 11th, at 3 pm in room 114, there will be a panel discussion about the death penalty in Ohio, and the recent American Bar Association report critical of how capital punishment is administered in Ohio.
Phyllis Crocker, Professor Law at Cleveland State law school, and recent chair of the ABA report on the death penalty, will be speaking, along with Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters (or a representative from his office who prosecutes capital cases). Both speakers will discuss their views about capital punishment and the ABA report, and then take questions.
University of Cincinnati College of Law is the fourth oldest continually running law school in the United States and a founding member of the Association of American Law Schools. It was started in 1833 as the Cincinnati Law School. Then-dean and future 27th President of the United States, William Howard Taft (1880), merged it with the University of Cincinnati in 1896.
