On the morning of July 19, 2014, Florida State University Law Professor Dan Markel—a friend and mentor to Justin, and to so many others—was shot and killed in his driveway in Tallahassee, Florida. Dan was 41 years old, and the father of two little boys, ages 4 and 3, one of whom was just days away from his next birthday.
The loss of Dan to his family, his friends, and colleagues, is incalculable. Dan’s Mom, Ruth, graciously shared her time to discuss Dan’s tragic death, her transition from grief to advocacy, the remarkable police work leading to the arrests of Dan’s former brother-in-law, and others, and the convictions resulting in life sentences of several coconspirators. Dan was a wonderful person, a brilliant scholar—ironically, focusing on justice and punishment—and is greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. We are honored to dedicate this episode of the JustPod in Dan’s memory.
