Rally Against Ohio's Death Penalty | 2:00 PM
Sister Helen Prejean, C.S.J., the internationally known death penalty activist and author of Dead Man Walking, will keynote a rally to end Ohio's death penalty.
"Sister Helen lays out a strong case that the state of Ohio should end the death penalty because it has not demonstrated any deterrent effect, is far more expensive to the taxpayer than keeping a dangerous criminal in prison for life, and it fails to give victims' family and friends the psychological closure and healing they hope for. More important is the fact it's a violation of the sanctity of human life," said Nick Cardilino, director of the Center for Social Concern.
The event is co-sponsored by Living Justice, Ohioans to Stop Executions, the University of Dayton religious studies department and Campus Ministry's Center for Social Concern.
Location: Sears Recital Hall
Cost: Free and open to the public
Contact: For more information, contact Nick Cardilino at 937-229-2576.
