Brief
Lecture rescheduled: Former death row inmate Rolando Cruz has
rescheduled his appearance at the Cornell Law School for today, Feb. 19, at 2 p.m.
in Room G90 of Myron Taylor Hall. Cruz's visit to Cornell is sponsored by the
Law School's Death Penalty Project and is free and open to the public. Cruz
was scheduled to speak last week, but had to postpone his appearance because of
travel delays. Cruz spent 11 years on death row in Illinois and had two murder
convictions overturned before he was acquitted at his third trial. His visit to Cornell follows the November visit, also
sponsored by the Cornell Death Penalty Project, of the death penalty-phase attorneys
for Timothy McVeigh, who was convicted and sentenced to death for the
Oklahoma City bombing.
