Thank goodness for the innocent project. Thank you for help freeing innocent inmates. Keep up the fantastic work. Everyone needs to know about the Innocent Project.

[@zo10]

The whole nation needs to see this

[@LMNGRL88]

Innocent people go to prison way more often than people would like to think

[@AnnetteWattsDoNotGiveUpHopeUSA]

How can the US execute anyone? There are innocent people still in prisons that need to be freed, home with families. Can you imagine what the families go thru?

[@baggagequeen]

Yeah that's right, rip up those fuckin numbers! You're free now thanks to the Innocence Project. What a wonderful cause.

Judge puts someone in jail despite obvious evidence that judge and everyone involved should be sentenced as well

[@jamesflunker]

up to 25 years wrongfully spent in prison this is so horrible. what compensation do they get?

[@gjc82071]

I often wonder not only how many innocent people are in prison @ any given time, but how many are on death row & most importantly how many have been executed, or, "murdered". IMO the execution of an innocent human being, is "murder". I also believe that an "innocent" person, sentenced to prison or death, has a god given right to do whatever they can, any & EVERYTHING up to & including the taking of as many lives as necessary, to free themselves from their illegal captors/kidnappers/murderers.

I can't belive this shit happens. The system needs to change

[@steelfury455]

Shocking. It's even more shocking that there is no doubt that innocent people are being executed,
