Today is #WrongfulConvictionDay. We are taking some extra time today to consider the estimated 2,250 people currently wrongfully in prison in Georgia. Together, we can continue to bring people home ❤️
As the definitive resource tracking the scope of #wrongfulconvictions in the U.S., @exonerationlist last week passed a sobering milestone -- more than 30,000 total years lost to #wrongfulimprisonment among the nearly 3,400 cases documented in our registry. #WrongfulConvictionDay
