LANSING, MICH. (Dec. 22, 2009) -- Lansing attorney and Cooley alumnus Andrew P. Abood, who has represented high-profile clients in cases drawing national media coverage, will discuss Jury Trials and the Media at the Thomas M. Cooley Law School's Lansing campus on Thursday, Jan. 14, 2009 at 5 p.m. in the Cooley Center, 300 S. Capitol Ave., room 911. Cooley students, faculty and staff as well as members of the legal community and the public are invited to attend this free event.
The event is part of the Integrity in Our Communities speaker series offered by Cooley's Center for Ethics, Service and Professionalism, and features attorneys and judges sharing their experiences as legal professionals.

Abood will discuss some of the high-profile clients he has represented, including Drew Peterson of Will County, Ill., a former police sergeant who was accused of killing his third wife, and Lisa Holland of Williamston, Mich., who was accused along with her husband, Tim Holland, of murdering their 7-year-old adopted son, Ricky Holland, who was at first reported as a missing child.
