Today, we celebrate the freedom, courage, strength, and unyielding hope of Dustin Duty, who was exonerated in 2021 after spending eight years wrongfully incarcerated.

[UM Innocence Clinic @Miami_Innocence]

2 years ago today @Miami_Innocence and @FLA_Innocence walked Dustin Duty out of prison in Jacksonville. Great day with a great team of amazing people and lawyers.

Happy 2nd Freedomversary to Dustin Duty. He did 8 years of a 20 year sentence for a crime he did not commit. #innocence @Miami_Innocence @FLA_Innocence @sem1480

I am consistently blessed with the most talented students. Dedicated freedom fighters all of them. Jonathan Richter, who left us far too soon, was one such person and this award is dedicated to his memory. @Miami_Innocence @MiamiLawSchool #RichterAward #NeverGiveUp

Meanwhile in Florida the most extreme death penalty statute in the country is enacted. Abolishing unanimous jury verdicts in favor of 8-4 majority is not an act of justice its an act of vengeance and should have no place in our jurisprudence

[UM Innocence Clinic @Miami_Innocence]

Clinic Director, @CraigTrocino was live on @WPLGLocal10 and @JanineStanwood discussing Florida’s death penalty statute.

[Craig Trocino (craigtrocino on threads) @CraigTrocino]

Always a pleasure to be on air with @JanineWPLG and @WPLGLocal10. It was a good discussion about Florida’s new and extreme death penalty statute. https://t.co/aRvl4H5EgH

Of the 3,391 exonerations listed by @exonerationlist only 375 were based on DNA. If this bill passes, FLA will perpetually be #1 in death row exonerations.
