Lessons Learned and Warning Signs: A Conversation with a Jan 6th Investigator

February 20, 2024 12:15 PM - 1:15 PM

One year after releasing its report, the January 6th Select Committee’s findings—and warnings—about the underlying causes behind the Capitol attack continue to be relevant as we head into a pivotal election year.

With introductions by Director of the International & Comparative Law Program, Jess Peake, the conversation will feature Sandeep Prasanna, a UCLA Law alumnus and former January 6th investigative counsel, in discussion with Rick Hasen, Director of the Safeguarding Democracy Project, to talk about his experience investigating the people, groups, and movements behind the Capitol attack—and why the health of our democracy continues to depend on understanding what really happened on January 6th.
