Join the School of Public Affairs for a special First Friday event featuring Sarah Gerard, a dedicated master’s student in criminal justice and the author of the compelling investigative journalism piece, Carrie Carolyn Coco. This powerful book explores the 2016 murder of Sarah’s friend, blending personal narrative with a thorough examination of the criminal justice system.
We hope you’ll join us for this one-of-a-kind First Friday event as we explore the intersections of personal loss, justice, and the power of storytelling, all through the lens of one of our criminal justice students, Sarah Gerard.\
