When quizzed by Jake regarding her credentials, Ellen Roark tells him she is in her final year of law school at Ole Miss, with only one semester to go. Her father has a law firm of eighteen lawyers. She has witnessed executions and has written briefs. Finally, beyond her family fortune, she hopes to eradicate the death penalty some day and become a "radical criminal lawyer" like her father.
