Today, I am heading off to Waco for several interesting events. To kick things off, I will be speaking tonight to the Baylor Democrats-- the meeting starts at 7 pm in Draper 329, and all are welcome. I will be talking about the subject of my Huffpo piece from yesterday. Then, tomorrow (Thursday) I will do a bunch of stuff and then go to Scruffy's.
Something wonderful and new happened yesterday, though... a first.
Yesterday we started the first commutation clinic in American legal history. It was wonderful. We sat in a small room, and I talked about the project we will embark on together now-- a project that will lead us to both prepare commutation petitions for individual clients, and to seek out a more principled role for the Constitutional pardon power within the larger realm of American criiminal law.
Freedom awaits.
Please keep us informed about the commutation clinic. Who are the "we" that you met with? Thanks, Dad

ReplyDeleteThe "we" was me and the students in the clinic. Who, by the way, are awesome.
