Daniel P. Sheehan

Daniel P. Sheehan is a Constitutional and public interest lawyer, public speaker and educator. Over the last forty-five years he has participated in numerous legal cases of public interest, including the Pentagon Papers Case, the Watergate Break-In Case, the Silkwood Case, the Iran Contra Scandal and others.

He established the Christic Institute and the Romero institute, two non-profit public policy centers. He has also spoken publicly about UFOs and alien visitation.

Today, Sheehan is Chief Counsel of the Romero Institute, where his current focus is the Lakota People’s Law Project. The Lakota People’s Law Project seeks to end what they claim are unlawful seizures of Native American Lakota children in South Dakota, and stop the state practice of placing the vast majority of these children in non-Native homes, in violation of the federal Indian Child Welfare Act.

In addition, he recently published a memoir, The People’s Advocate, and is finishing work for a book on the most up-to-date theories of the John F. Kennedy assassination.
