[Video] Catholics and the Death Penalty

This 4-minute video produced by CMN in 2017 features:

• Cheryl Ward Kaiser, mother of a murder victim
• Jeanne Woodford, former warden of San Quentin prison, CA
• Rita Chavez, Boyle Heights resident and restorative justice volunteer
• Ron Briggs, California elected official who had worked to legalize and expand the death penalty in 1976 and became an advocate against capital punishment

The video is well-suited for presentations on the Catholic opposition to the death penalty in educational or ministry settings. While it does not include graphic depictions of violence, it begins with an oral description of a murder, including a mention of the threat of sexual assault.
