Exonerated: Justice, Justice Shall You Pursue

Imagine spending decades in prison for a crime you did not commit.
The Midwest Innocence Project sees to set free those who, through wrongful conviction, end up as victims of our criminal justice system. This is a rare opportunity to learn about the program and hear compelling stories from exonerees about their fight for freedom.
