Champions of Innocence: Inside the Fight Against Wrongful Convictions by Saul Kassin Ph.D
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 0.5 Mb
Overview: Twenty-four powerful voices from the frontlines of justice reveal how they’re revolutionizing a system that fails the innocent.
Over the years, history has uncovered thousands of wrongful convictions in the United States, involving children and adults, men and women of all backgrounds and colors, and in countries throughout the world. Unimaginable to most, and truly terrifying for some, being convicted for a crime that one did not commit is a bizarrely tortuous and profoundly isolating experience. But a decades-long movement is gaining more traction and renown by the day for their efforts to seek justice for victims. Champions of Innocence showcases real-life stories from inside the innocence movement, from lawyers to forensic scientists, journalists and authors, and, most importantly, from exonerees themselves that work for life-changing reforms. Edited by Saul Kassin, who pioneered the scientific study of false confessions, and featuring an introduction by bestselling author and innocent activist John Grisham
