Mr. Pak will share his perspective on how the current political climate and recent events shifted enormous power to, and placed pressure on, prosecutors to prosecute crimes touching upon elective politics, and how prosecutorial discretion appropriately might be exercised under these circumstances.
Lecture is free and open to the public.
A reception will follow in the Peer and Sarah Pedersen Pavilion.
