This week we look at the cases of those proven innocent and those seeking to prove their innocence, including Kevin Henry. We examine the role race plays in the process and the way dodgy forensics, often influenced by race, can convict the innocent and control the media narrative.

This week on Curtain we bring you an update from Rodney Reed's latest hearing in Texas. The similarities to Kevin Henry's case cross the boundaries of race, innocence and dodgy forensics.
