Flaw & Order
Thursday, October 15 | Dual Citizen Brewing | 6:00-7:30 p.m.
Join GNIP at Dual Citizen Brewing for “Flaw & Order” – an evening of courtroom drama, questionable policing, and insights into wrongful convictions.
We’ll screen an episode from the “Law & Order” franchise that is particularly rife with official misconduct, with GNIP Managing Attorney and former public defender Baylea Kannmacher serving as emcee. And because some TV law enforcement deserves a little cross-examination, we’ll have a sound board on hand so we can weigh in on the show’s most outrageous moments.
Whether you’re new to the innocence movement or a longtime justice advocate, grab a beverage and join us to interrogate one of television’s most beloved franchises. Free to attend, donations encouraged if you learn something!
Contact Katy at kbriggs@gn-ip.org with questions.
