RED-FLAG LAWS – Extreme-Risk Protection
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, host Libby Edwards explores how red-flag laws can help protect individuals who are under immediate threat of gun violence. Our guest, Tom Verni, a retired NYPD detective with over 27 years in law enforcement and former city-wide LGBTQ+ liaison in NYC, will discuss the red-flag law and how extreme-risk protection orders can be used to stop firearms deaths in cases of domestic violence.
We will also review Manuel Oliver’s one-man show, "GUAC", now playing at the Public Theater, and "Trickled Down Decadence: Screams for Hope,” an exhibition where the artists address gun violence at the Jamaica Center for Arts and Learning in Jamaica, Queens, NYC. In Remembrance of Ellie Claire Young, 22 years old, 10/19/24, Memphis, Tennessee.
