Sister Helen Prejean -- author of Dead Man Walking -- (donate at sisterhelen.org/donate ) joins Fairfax criminal lawyer / Virginia DUI lawyer Jonathan Katz and Severna Park, Maryland criminal defense attorney Christopher Flohr about defending those charged with capital crimes and other alleged offenses, humanizing the accused, abolishing the death penalty, pouring our caring and souls into helping criminal defendants, persuading through gripping storytelling, overcoming burnout, enlivening hope, and keeping the fire burning.

When Jon Katz first met Sister Helen over thirty years ago, walking up to her with a question about abolishing capital punishment, she drew his soul and forearm to her center and focused Jon on keeping our eyes on the prize of ending the death penalty.

Sister Helen has stayed with death row inmates right through the points of their state-sponsored killings. She knows the possibility of changing anyone to becoming a better person and to being persuaded to do right. She has been at this for decades.
