A Matter of Life and Death

With worldwide eyes focused on New Hampshire's death penalty controversy, David Lamarre-Vincent '71 is hard at work with the New Hampshire Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty.

Other states, as well as Amnesty International on the global level, are looking to New Hampshire to set a precedent for death penalty reform.
