Former DeKalb County district attorney J. Tom Morgan, author of the book Ignorance is No Defense, will be visiting Unity Christian School on March 24th to talk with 8th – 12th graders about Georgia’s laws as well as teenagers’ rights in different real-life situations.
Mr. Morgan is a well-known prosecutor and defense lawyer in Georgia and has appeared on numerous television shows to discuss laws as they pertain to Georgia’s youth.
The upcoming visit was born out of a discussion topic on the law and legal procedures in a senior seminar at Unity. Homeroom teachers for the 8th through 12th grades have been reading and discussing Mr. Morgan’s book with their students in preparation for the trial lawyer’s visit. Mr. Morgan will address the students and faculty at 10 a.m. on Monday and lead a Q&A session afterwards. He will then give a talk open to any interested parents as well as the public at 7 p.m. at Unity Christian’s Upper Campus (2960 New Calhoun Hwy. NE). A reception for Mr. Morgan will follow.
For more information about the evening presentation or for directions to Unity’s Upper Campus, please call 706-292-0700. To learn more about J. Tom Morgan or his book go to www.ignoranceisnodefense.com.
