The Chattanooga Bar Association hosted its annual Law Day luncheon June 5 in the Silver Ballroom at The Read House.

Guest speaker Jerry Mitchell, an investigative reporter whose work led to the prosecution of unpunished murders from the Civil Rights era, focused on the cornerstones of representative government – free speech, free press and free society – and called on his listeners to understand and protect these rights.
