Media witnesses serve a vital role at executions–they are the eyes of the public. In this installment of Pulling Back the Curtain, we will be speaking with Rhonda Cook from The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Rhonda served as the AJC’s media witness for many years, witnessing and reporting on more than 25 executions. She will share with us what it is like to witness an execution, as well as why it is so important for the media to be present.
