Falsely Accused and Wrongfully Convicted
From the innocence project:
Q. How many innocent people are there in prison? A. We will never know for sure, but the few studies that have been done estimate that between 2.3% and 5% of all prisoners in the U.S. are innocent (for context, if just 1% of all prisoners are innocent, that would mean that more than 20,000 innocent people are in prison). |
