Innocent man released after 38 yrs 1 Week, 2 Days ago  
Another victim of a miscarriage of justice, freed after DNA evidence found him innocent.

But how many more have been sent to jail and remain there over dodgy "evidence"?

Sheck and Neufeld founded the Innocence Project over 30 years in the USA - and have obtained the release of ov6 300 wrongly convicted prisoners.

Pro-bono/and growing. A similar organisation is needed urgently in the UK, because thousands of innocent people are incarcerated here - because of errors.

If you're ever arrested - insist on your right to an attorney/solicitor.
