Featuring the author James Duane, Professor, Regent University Law School; with comments by Randy Barnett, Director, Georgetown Center for the Constitution, Georgetown University Law School; moderated by Tim Lynch, Director, Project on Criminal Justice, Cato Institute.
Law
professor James Duane became a viral sensation in 2008 for a lively
lecture that explained why people shouldn’t agree to answer questions
from the police. In his new book,
You Have the Right to Remain Innocent,
Duane expands on that presentation, offering a vigorous defense of
every citizen’s constitutionally protected right to avoid
self-incrimination. By using case histories of innocent persons who were
wrongfully imprisoned because of information they gave to police, Duane
debunks the claim that “if you haven’t done anything wrong, then you
don’t have anything to worry about.” Join us for an informative lecture
about the Constitution and how to protect yourself and stay out of
trouble with the police.
