Pardons: The Power Nobody Wants
Wednesday, October 26, 2011 6:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.
This a an excerpt of the full 1 hour 28 minute panel discussion which can be found here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqEO5vJhZ3Q
The Hon. Dennis Jacobs, chief judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, and a distinguished panel of experts explore the history and real-world application of the power of pardon at the state and federal level.
Following opening remarks by New School president David E. Van Zandt, Judge Jacobs explains the history of the power, its role in correcting injustice in the application of criminal law, and the way the decline in its use reflects a missed opportunity, lack of imagination, and failure of courage.
Our panel then examines the critical historical, legal, economic, and ethical issues surrounding the pardon power and the implications of its greater or lesser use. Panelists include:
Moderator: Senator Bob Kerrey, President Emeritus, The New School.
Hon. Dennis Jacobs, Chief Judge, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.
Hon. Robert L. Ehrlich, Senior Counsel, King & Spalding; former Governor of Maryland; former Congressman (R-MD), U.S. House of Representatives.
Julie Stewart, President and Founder, Families Against Mandatory Minimums.
Margaret Colgate Love, Attorney; former Pardon Attorney, Office of the Pardon Attorney, U.S. Department of Justice.
Anthony Papa, Manager, Media Relations, Drug Policy Alliance; clemency recipient following imprisonment for first-time, nonviolent drug offense under New York's draconian Rockefeller Drug Laws.
