Lafitte, Lynching and Electrocution to Lethal Injection

It was my privilege to present “Lafitte, Lynching and Electrocution to Lethal Injection: The Sad and Sordid History of Texas Executions.” In July and August, the presentation was given to more than 200 lawyers across the state via Zoom and GoToMeeting, including the Dallas Bar Association and the Criminal Law Institute.

View a preview (first 20 minutes) of the presentation that covers how executions have evolved in Texas, including extrajudicial mob lynchings and more.
