[Hamp-law] Law Lunch: Prison Reform Fri April 2

[Flavio Risech]

The Hampshire College Law Program invites you to a Law Lunch with 
Phillip Kassel, senior staff attorney with Massachusetts Correctional 
Legal Services, speaking on "How A Pedophile Priest's Death Sparked 
Attention to the Need for Prison Reform in Massachusetts".

Mr. Kassel is a longtime advocate for the rights of prisoners to be 
treated fairly and humanely while incarcerated. He will examine the 
recent brutal murder of convicted pedophile priest John Geoghan by a 
fellow inmate in a Massachusetts state facilty, how this event has 
drawn attention to long-standing problems and inhumane conditions in 
the correctional system, and what the present prospects are for 
prison reform advocates.

Lunch will be served. The Law Lunch will take place in the Merrill 
House Living Room from 12:00 noon until 1 pm. Please join us.
For the Law Program,
Flavio Risech
