On Thursday, the University of Tennessee School of Law hosted a panel as a part of their Critical Conversations series that focuses on race and social issues. This panel, titled Critical Conversations: Race, Children, and Police in Knox County Schools, comes considering the recent protest over the death of 17-year-old Anthony Thompson Jr.
KPD officer Jonathan Clabough fatally shot Anthony Thompson Jr. at Austin-East High School last week. Last night, District Attorney General Charme Allen announced that they would not be filing charges against officer Clabough, prompting protests in downtown Knoxville.
For the panel, over 200 attended. A moment of silence was held at the start for both Anthony Thompson Jr. and his family. The panel was hosted by Professor of Law Wendy Bach as well as a group of students at the School of Law. They moderated the chat and provided questions to the speakers from the audience.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – After nearly 37 years of service, Brig. Gen. (Tenn.) Lyndon Craig Johnson, a Manchester resident, is retiring from the Tennessee Military Department on Feb. 6. Johnson, the current commander of the Tennessee State Guard, will relinquish command of the State Guard to Brig. Gen. (Tenn.) Juan R. Santiago from Memphis, during a ceremony held at the Tennessee National Guard’s Joint Force Headquarters in Nashville. “Johnson has done a fantastic job for more than four-and-a-half years,” said Maj. Gen. Holmes, Tennessee’s Adjutant General. “It is a great loss to our State but his retirement is well deserved after spending more than 36 years in uniform.”
