The FBI established the Genocide War Crimes Unit (GWCU) to investigate egregious violations of human rights.  FBI Special Agent Jeffrey VanNest, J.D., founder and director, will speak about the Unit’s work at an event sponsored by World Without Genocide and hosted at William Mitchell College of Law.

During the 20th century, an estimated 170 million innocent people perished in genocides that occurred on virtually every continent.  Special Agent Jeff VanNest was selected to lead the FBI Genocide and War Crimes Unit in 2011, investigating these crimes and enforcing human rights laws. Special Agent VanNest will speak about the work of the Genocide and War Crimes.

The event is open to the public and no reservations are necessary.   $10 general admission, $5 seniors and students; free to Mitchell students. $35 for two standard CLE credits for lawyers; $35 for 2 POST credits for police officers (pending); 2 clock hours for educators.
