U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder's task force on children exposed to violence is holding its last public hearing next week at Wayne State University. Holder launched the task force last fall as part of his Defending Childhood initiative, with ex-New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers manager Joe Torre as co-chair. The task force is to take public testimony 5-7 p.m. Monday at WSU's Adamany Undergraduate Library. Detroit U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade, Acting Associate Attorney General Tony West and Acting Assistant Attorney General Mary Lou Leary are scheduled to give opening remarks Tuesday. The program Tuesday features presentations by Detroit police Chief Ralph Godbee and New York city Probation Commissioner Vincent Schiraldi
