At mock trial, Animas High School students to explore World War II case

Animas High School students will hold a mock trial from 12:20 to 3:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 19, at the La Plata County Courthouse, 1060 East Second Ave.

Ashley Carruth’s 11th-grade humanities class will re-enact Korematsu v. U.S. (1944) about the use of Japanese internment camps during World War II. The decision before the students is this: Were Executive Order 9066 and the subsequent civilian exclusion orders constitutional?
