Geoff Shepard was Featured Speaker at the Inner Temple Inn of Court in London

On January 19, 2017, Geoff was the featured speaker for the annual History Society Lecture at the Inner Temple Inn of Court in London. The Inner Temple is one of four Inns of Court to which all London barristers (trial lawyers) must belong. It also maintains the Temple Church, built in 1185, which is featured in The De Vinci Code.

Geoff’s presentation was entitled “Due Process and the Watergate Scandal.” The topic was particularly relevant to British lawyers, since the due process guarantees of our Fifth Amendment can be traced back to rights of Englishmen first articulated in the Magna Carta in 1215.
