Professor Bennett L. Gershman, distinguished professor at 17�Թ���’s Elisabeth Haub School of Law, appears in Salon discussing why accountability for the January 6 insurrection ultimately collapsed. In the article “We Learned Nothing From Jan. 6,” Bennett L. Gershman explains that while the indictments against former President Trump were strong and supported by overwhelming evidence, the complexities and timing of the prosecution — coupled with Trump’s election — allowed him to evade accountability.

Professor Gershman also publishes several op-eds in amNewYork, including a critique of CBS News pulling a 60 Minutes segment on alleged abuses at El Salvador’s CECOT prison, raising concerns about journalistic independence.
