by Michelle Saport  |   

UAA Justice Center faculty Troy Payne, Ph.D., was a panelist at the recent community forum on "stand your ground" laws in Alaska sponsored by the Anchorage Community Police Relations Task Force and the Anchorage Equal Rights Commission (AERC).

The forum addressed the "stand your ground" law and its implementation in Alaska. Payne presented information on the law in other states, as well as available research on the impact of these laws. If you missed the forum or want a recap, you can view an outline of Payne's presentation here.
