SUMMARY:Watch: Media Coverage of Prosecutors and Their Elections
DESCRIPTION:  \nWatch now: Play a recording of this event. \nA recent survey found that most Americans do not know that their local prosecutor is elected.  How could that be? \nOne possible answer to that question may lie in the media coverage that prosecutors receive.  Outside of large cities\, prosecutors do not receive much media coverage\, and the coverage that they do receive rarely mentions that they are an elected office—even in an election year. \nJoin the Prosecutors and Politics Project for an important discussion about media coverage of prosecutors and their elections\, featuring journalists and prosecutors! \nPanelists include: \nMark Dupree\, Sr.\, District Attorney in Wyandotte County\, Kansas \nDupree leads an office of over 60 employees. His administration has increased the felony trial conviction rate by 27%. Dupree has successfully created the first ever “Conviction Integrity Unit” in the state of Kansas\, since re-named “Community Integrity Unit” which is responsible for ensuring that convictions obtained previously still hold integrity today and holding law enforcement accountable with the establishment of a hotline for residents to register complaints. His efforts for transforming the traditional manner in which District Attorney’s Offices have operated has been recognized nationally\, with articles featured twice in the New York Times and interviewed on the nationally syndicated Roland Martin Show. Community involvement is the bedrock of the Dupree Administration. It builds community trust\, and that trust greatly assists in crime prevention and bringing justice. Dupree and his administration lead the way in speaking at schools\, neighborhood watch meetings\, church gatherings\, and civic organizations. \nJulie Gunnigle\, Legal Director\, Arizona NORML \nGunnigle is an attorney and former prosecutor who fights for justice in our criminal legal system\, for funding in our public schools\, and for reproductive justice for our families. She was the 2020 and 2022 Democratic nominee for Maricopa County Attorney\, coming closer than any reform candidate in 40 years to taking that office. Since that time\, Gunnigle has worked as the Legal Director for Arizona NORML where she helps individuals who have been directly impacted by the war on drugs expunge their convictions and get a true second chance. \nGeorge Joseph\, Senior Reporter for The City \nJoseph is a Senior Reporter for The City with a focus on criminal justice and courts.

SUMMARY:The Future of the First Amendment-2023 Wade H. Hargrove Media Law and Policy Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:On April 10\, the UNC Center for Media Law and Policy will host the 2023 Wade H. Hargrove Media Law and Policy Colloquium featuring Floyd Abrams\, Senior Counsel at Cahill Gordon & Reindel. Abrams\, one of the nation’s leading First Amendment lawyers\, will speak about “The Future of the First Amendment.” In addition to giving prepared remarks\, he will sit down with Mary-Rose Papandrea\, Samuel Ashe Distinguished Professor of Constitutional Law at the UNC School of Law\, for an extended conversation about this important topic. \nAbrams has extensive experience in high-visibility matters\, often involving First Amendment\, securities litigation\, intellectual property\, public policy and regulatory issues. He has argued frequently in the U.S. Supreme Court in cases raising issues as diverse as the scope of the First Amendment\, the interpretation of ERISA\, the nature of broadcast regulation\, the impact of copyright law\, and the continuing viability of the Miranda rule. Most recently\, he prevailed in his argument before the Supreme Court on behalf of Senator Mitch McConnell as amicus curiae\, defending the rights of corporations and unions to speak publicly about politics and elections in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. Abrams also represented The New York Times in the Pentagon Papers case and other important First Amendment litigation before the Supreme Court. He represented Nina Totenberg and National Public Radio in the 1992 “leak” investigation conducted by the United States Senate arising out of the confirmation hearing of Justice Clarence Thomas and\, in 2004 and 2005\, Judith Miller and Matthew Cooper in their efforts to avoid revealing their confidential sources. \nDescribed by Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan as “the most significant First Amendment lawyer of our age\,” Abrams has been awarded with Lifetime Achievement Awards by The New York Law Journal and The American Lawyer (2013). For fifteen years\, Abrams was the William J. Brennan\, Jr. Visiting Professor of First Amendment Law at the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism. He also has been a Visiting Lecturer at Yale Law School and Columbia Law School and he is author of Friend of the Court: On the Front Lines with the First Amendment\, published by Yale University Press (2013) and Speaking Freely: Trials of the First Amendment\, published by Viking Press (2005). \nAbrams will speak at 7:30 p.m. in the Chancellors’ Ballroom at the Carolina Inn. The event is free and open to the public. \nAbout the Colloquium\nThe UNC Center for Media Law and Policy hosts the Wade H. Hargrove Media Law and Policy Colloquium\, which was established in 2009 to honor a figure of national prominence in the areas of media law or media policy. It was funded in part by the North Carolina Association of Broadcasters and North Carolina Cable Telecommunications Association to recognize the more than 30 years of service that Wade Hargrove\, a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the UNC School of Law\, provided to these organizations as well as media and technology companies throughout North Carolina and the nation. \nThe colloquium is a world-class event that draws attendees from both industry and academia. Speakers have included David Barrett\, former chairman and CEO of Hearst Television Inc.; Ben Sherwood\, former president of Disney|ABC Television; and David Cohen\, Ambassador to Canada and former senior executive vice president of Comcast Corp.

SUMMARY:Prosecuting Cannabis: Approaches from States without Legalization
DESCRIPTION:Over the last decade\, a large number of states have adopted various forms of marijuana reform. To date\, 21 states have legalized marijuana for recreational purposes and 38 have legalized medical marijuana use. While public opinion polls suggest that the vast majority of people support marijuana legalization\, less is known about the opinions and policies of prosecuting attorneys in states that have not yet legalized marijuana for any purpose. \nJoin the Prosecutors and Politics Project at UNC School of Law and the Drug Enforcement and Policy Center at The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law for a conversation with a panel of legal experts and academics. Panelists will discuss results from a recent study of marijuana enforcement and examine how different district attorney offices approach marijuana offenses.

SUMMARY:DC Carolina Law Alumni Reception
DESCRIPTION:UNC School of Law and The Law Alumni Association invite you to join us for Carolina Law Reception in D.C. with Professors Andy Hessick\, Rick Simpson\, and law students in the Supreme Court Program. \nOn November 28\, the United States Supreme Court will hear argument in McElrath v. Georgia – a case filed by the UNC School of Law Supreme Court Program. The program provides an opportunity for Carolina law students to draft briefs and assist counsel in cases before the Supreme Court. \nAt issue in the McElrath case is whether the Double Jeopardy Clause prohibits retrying a defendant on a charge following an earlier acquittal. The defendant\, Damien McElrath\, was tried for malice murder\, aggravated assault\, and felony murder after he stabbed his foster mother. The jury found McElrath not guilty of malice murder by reason of insanity but convicted him of aggravated assault and felony murder. The Georgia Supreme Court concluded that those verdicts were impermissibly repugnant because they depended on conflicting findings about McElrath’s sanity. For that reason\, the court vacated both the acquittal and convictions for retrial. \nWorking with the UNC Program\, Professor Richard Simpson ’77\, a Carolina Law alumnus and partner at Wiley Rein\, along with co-counsel Professor Andy Hessick\, represents McElrath before The Supreme Court. Their position is that double jeopardy precludes retrial of the acquittal. The case will be argued by Professor Simpson. \nJoin us at Charlie Palmer Steak from 5:30 – 7:30 to hear from Professors Simpson and Hessick.  Remarks will begin at 6:15 p.m. \nRSVP by Monday\, November 27th\, at noon. Questions? Contact Kelly Mann Rose\, assistant director of alumni and donor relations\, at mann@unc.edu.
