Ep 3: A Courageous Conversation with Karen Kennard, Part One - a podcast by Greenberg Traurig, LLP

This episode continues Greenberg Traurig’s Courageous Conversations series, where members of the firm and others share parts of their journeys. Greenberg Traurig Shareholder Karen Kennard shares her personal connection to criminal justice reform. She and her family have been involved with the Innocence Project of Texas for more than a decade. Kennard’s oldest brother, Tim Cole, was wrongfully convicted of rape more than two decades ago and died in prison in 1999, at the age of 39. In 2009, DNA testing proved his innocence, and he was the first person in Texas to receive a posthumous exoneration and posthumous pardon. In addition, the Texas exoneration compensation system and the Texas Innocence Commission are named in his honor.
