Can the Past Be Healed?
A face-to-face meeting with Fr. Zachariah Presutti, S.J., founder of Thrive For Live Prison Project, Inc., and Leo Schofield, wrongly imprisoned for 35 years, moderated by Hannah Chesterton, Assistant Professor of Criminology, The Catholic University of America
At the conclusion of last year’s Encounter, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Gilbert King recounted the story of Leo Schofield, who forgave the person who actually committed the murder for which he had been unjustly incarcerated. This year, we are honored to have Leo himself at the Encounter. He will speak about what sustained his hope in those painful years, how he looks at his past, and what he expects in the future. He will be joined by Fr. Zach, who will share his personal experience on what can heal the past and why he founded Thrive For Life.
