Rountree and Coker

Catholic Law students recently gained valuable perspective from the front lines of the justice system during a special event co-hosted by the Black Law Students Association (BLSA) and the Criminal Law Society. The discussion featured special guest Kwambina Coker, a 2018 Catholic Law alumnus and Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Guided by thoughtful moderation from BLSA President Jasmine Rountree, Coker detailed his career path, offered a behind-the-scenes look at some of his most memorable cases, and provided rich insights into the responsibilities of his role. The engaging session provided a unique learning opportunity for attendees, concluding with an engaging question-and-answer period where students directly interacted with the federal prosecutor.
