WKU Libraries’ Kentucky Live! talk series featured Dr. Gloria Nixon-John and her book The Killing Jar at Barnes & Noble on the evening of March 20, 2014. The book tells a compelling story of a fifteen-year-old who served nine years on Death Row in Eddyville, Kentucky. The author, Gloria Nixon-John, provides documentation for the many problems this youngster endured, and how those who misread the signs condemned him to death.
