Judge Robert J Conrad, Jr. (U.S. District Judge for the Western District of North Carolina) has published a new book John Fisher and Thomas More: Keeping Their Souls While Losing Their Heads. Nearly 500 years after the deaths of the Saints, Judge Conrad examines their lives in a collection of stories “demonstrating how their sanctity and integrity carried them and those who loved them through tumultuous and heart-wrenching times which, perhaps surprisingly, bear a striking resemblance to the present epoch.”

Judge Conrad served as the United States Attorney for the WD of North Carolina from 2001 to 2004. He spoke on the Berger case and in particular Justice Sutherland’s quote on the role of a United States Attorney to seek justice at NAFUSA’s 2016 conference om San Diego.
