To thank you for your support over the years, the Clinton Young Foundation (CYF) invites you to an evening celebration of the upcoming documentary ‘Clinton Young; About Time’ by Jessica Villerius.
This documentary tells the extraordinary story of how the CYF assisted in overturning Clinton’s conviction and death sentence after 20 years, based on the fact that one of the prosecuting attorneys was moonlighting, paid by the judge to write his orders in the case. Clinton is the first person in Texas death penalty history to be freed on bail pending retrial after such a reversal, but he still faces possible execution after a retrial.
The new documentary officially airs on Dutch tv on April 15, but we are hosting a special screening event ahead of that date for a limited group of people. You are invited!
Program
19:00 – 19:30: doors open

20:30 – 21:15: Q&A with renowned capital defense lawyer Clive Stafford Smith
