Dallas Daily News: Hispanic Lawyers Convention Next Week Will Tackle Thorny Issues
From the Dallas Daily News, August 26, 2011
By Mercedes Olivera
In this age of Facebook and social media, how do you pick a jury that you hope will be unbiased?
Its a question many lawyers increasingly face in this digital era we live in. And its one that José Baez will be asked at the four-day annual convention of the Hispanic National Bar Association in Dallas next week.
Baez was involved in what has been described as the social media trial of the century.
He was the attorney who represented Casey Anthony, the mother accused of murdering her 2-year-old daughter. Anthony was acquitted, and Baez became an instant success story.
Baez will be introduced by Geraldo Rivera at a Friday plenary session that will also feature Todd Robinson, deputy assistant secretary at the U.S. Department of State.
