On today’s Sidebar, we talk to Eric Anderson, who was a college freshman when he was arrested and charged with two counts of first-degree armed robbery, assault and illegal use of a weapon. Despite having an alibi—and video showing he was elsewhere at the time of the robbery—Eric was found guilty and sentenced to 15 to 22 years in prison. He fought to prove his innocence, and with the help of the Michigan Innocence Clinic, his conviction was overturned in 2019. Today, Eric works with the Organization of Exonerees, helping others who have faced similar injustices.
