On the Trail of War Criminals: From Investigation to Prosecution Under International Law
2026-04-09 12:00 - 13:00 | The Mann Lounge
Join us for a lunch hour filled with interesting talk about US Attorney Gregory Kehoe’s experience in international justice. Through the course of a 20 year career with the DOJ, he worked across multiple continents and accomplished things many don’t consider when they think of the DOJ. Most notably, Mr. Kehoe led the team of lawyers and investigators that advised the prosecutorial team for Saddam Hussein in the Iraqi Special Tribunal. Mr. Kehoe also served on the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia.
This event is a great opportunity to hear from someone in our backyard who has worked at the intersection of international and criminal law on issues of great importance to our nation.
