TIME Innocent: The Fight Against Wrongful Convictions

TIME Innocent: The Fight Against Wrongful Convictions
On the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Innocence Projectâ€”which is devoted to overturning wrongful convictionsâ€”this special edition looks at some of the most compelling and confounding cases of those whoâ€™ve served time for crimes they didnâ€™t commit: the recently exonerated West Memphis 3, the Central Park jogger defendant; the Making a Murderer subject, Steven Avery, who served 18 years for a rape before he was proved innocent by DNA evidence. How and why do these convictions happen? Highlights include:
- Death row cases: exonerated before it was too late
- The new science of innocence: the latest developments in DNA evidence
- The attorneys who have dedicated their lives to getting innocent prisoners out of jail
