Lots of wrongly convicted men have to do with tape cases. That is why proper DNA testing is so important to a case.

it was easily for the judge and jury to misinterpret the information and wrongly convict the accused.
Yes, lots of the cases worked on by the Innocence Project are from 20 plus years ago but because technology wasn't great back then,
Many men and some women have been the victim of being wrongly accused and have done the time in jail... How is this fair?
The Innocence Project was founded in 1992 and has been raising awareness and helping more and more people since then.

Do you know someone who has been wrongly convicted? It impacts not only their life greatly but the people in the community as well
A team of lawyers, writers, directors, actors, visual artists and musicians support and help raise awareness about the wrongful convictions
innocenceproject.org/about-i… is the link to their website where tremendous amount of information can be found on all of the cases worked.
Having a correct criminal justice system means a better future for everyone
They are special because they use DNA testing to prove the accused innocence and reform the criminal justice system at the same time
