Let's Talk About It: Wrongful Conviction and Incarceration a conversation with Dr. Tina Barr

There is Power in Your Story with Dr. Veronica Hardy

What is a DNA exoneration? According to The Innocence Project, "it is a case in which post-conviction DNA testing results were central to establishing the innocence of the wrongfully convicted individual, i.e., the DNA testing results were dispositive of actual innocence and central to vacating the conviction and/or dismissing the indictment. The indictment must have been dismissed or the defendant pardoned on the grounds of innocence or acquitted at a retrial."

What are the statistics? 365 DNA exoneration cases in the U.S. (2019)
