  • Legal Brief: March Exonerations

    It's the last Legal Brief of the month, so you know what that means!
     Justine and Amanda tell you about all the people added to The National Exoneration Registry.
    "
    The National Registry of Exonerations is a project of the Newkirk Center for Science & Society at University of California Irvine, the University of Michigan Law School and Michigan State University College of Law. It was founded in 2012 in conjunction with the Center on Wrongful Convictions at Northwestern University School of Law. The Registry provides detailed information about every known exoneration in the United States since 1989—cases in which a person was wrongly convicted of a crime and later cleared of all the charges based on new evidence of innocence. The Registry also maintains a more limited database of known exonerations prior to 1989."

  • Florida PRR Families United

    On this weeks episode, Justine and Amanda talk with Florida PRR Families United.

    Florida PRR Families United advocates to amend and/or abolish PRR. They also bring awareness to its history and let it be known that these sentences are inhumane. Their hope is to reach every person that has a loved one sentenced as PRR, so we can stand together, united with one voice.
