Katherine Sarah Morris

Our Story

THAT WHEN WOMEN PUSH CHANGE HAPPENS. For over 70 years a nation pursued justice for Emmit Till, long after his mother died. Was her pursuit on behalf of her child a personal issue? Yes and no, she used it to impact the lives of others and the way we do things as a nation. For 25 years Lois Duncan pursued justice for her daughter and after her death someone confessed. So her labor was not in vain. What about Mary Couey in the death of her son Keith W Warren found hanging from a tree 37 years ago in Montgomery County, and police ruled it a suicide. Was that just a personal issue? Mary died in 2009 and her daughter Sherri Warren picked up the battle and as of Feb of 2024 - the death is being reclassified... 37 years later. What an amazing story of perseverance and determination captured in the Discovery channel "Uprooted" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhGePopoT3g

      Now comes the Katherine Morris Death Reclassification Act, and the fact that as a non attorney mom, by Gods grace, I personally have caused 3 laws to be added in 3 consecutive years, to the state of Maryland to positively impact the lives of others. Not to mention, personally arguing a case against the Attorney Generals office and winning, and they lost on appeal!
