We can’t allow this rollback to happen #ProtectKaliefsLaw

[Innocence Project @innocence]

URGENT: New York is on the brink of a major rollback that could lead to more wrongful convictions.
Discovery reform — which helps prevent innocent people from incarceration — is under attack. And the process is happening behind closed doors. #ProtectKaliefsLaw

HUGE!!

Timely blueprint for times ahead from @ChristinaSwarns @innocence

No matter the politics of the moment, we doubled down on fairness, accuracy, reliability, and accountability in the administration of the criminal legal system. Today is no different, writes @innocence executive director @ChristinaSwarns. https://t.co/ZFr9UFJrR5

104 years. That’s how much time was stolen from five of our recently exonerated clients: Tyrone Day, Rosa Jimenez, Leonard Mack, Perry Lott, and Renay Lynch.

Imagine.

[Laura Burstein @LauraBurstein1]

In 2024, there were more than twice as many death row commutations (52) as executions (25).

[Innocence Project @innocence]

From securing better compensation laws for exonerees to modernizing post-conviction relief processes, this year the Innocence Project helped pass life-changing laws for the wrongfully convicted. Learn more about what we did this year: https://t.co/lNDy3aW6t6

What @ChristinaSwarns said. An historic moment for fairness and compassion.

[Christina Swarns @ChristinaSwarns]

Thank you @JoeBiden! Scores of innocent people have been wrongly convicted of murder and sentenced to death and the factors that drive such wrongful convictions persist within the federal death penalty system. "It is time to concede that the death penalty experiment has failed." https://t.co/CN8jQQO8X6

[Innocence Project @innocence]

BREAKING: @POTUS commutes 37 federal death sentences, making history and preventing executions of innocent people. A bold step for justice, dignity, and redemption. https://t.co/v0hJjSNoiH #CommuteTheRow

[Innocence Project @innocence]

The federal death penalty is no different from the state system — plagued by misconduct, unreliable evidence, and the risk of executing the innocent. Urge President Biden @POTUS to #CommuteTheRow before it’s too late. Sign here: https://t.co/Dby3Q7zZlK

[Innocence Project @innocence]

.@POTUS once said, “Because we can’t ensure that we get these cases right every time, we must eliminate the death penalty.” He’s right. Over 200 people on death row have been exonerated since 1973. Encourage him to honor his promise to #CommuteTheRow: https://t.co/Dby3Q7zZlK

[Innocence Project @innocence]

Exciting news! The Innocence Project has been selected as one of three nonprofits in @CREDOMobile’s December campaign. Your vote can make a difference in our mission to free the innocent and transform the justice system. Vote now: https://t.co/QNAYV97xl4

[Innocence Project @innocence]

URGENT: @POTUS must act now to commute all federal death sentences before leaving office. The federal death penalty risks innocent lives, deepens racial injustice, and perpetuates a broken system. #CommuteTheRow

The Texas Supreme Court ruled yesterday that the state can go forward with the execution of #RobertRoberson, who was convicted based on the debunked "shaken baby syndrome" theory. A new execution date has yet to be set. https://t.co/aWme7MdUFU

[Innocence Project @innocence]

The trial judge who presided over Melissa Lucio’s case found last month that she is innocent of her daughter’s death and recommended that her sentence and conviction be overturned. The case now goes to the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. https://t.co/ltNEpqXacO
