Convicting the Innocent by Brandon L. Garrett Pdf

On January 20, 1984, Earl Washington—defended for all of forty minutes by a lawyer who had never tried a death penalty case—was found guilty of rape and murder in the state of Virginia and sentenced to death. After nine years on death row, DNA testing cast doubt on his conviction and saved his life. However, he spent another eight years in prison before more sophisticated DNA technology proved his innocence and convicted the guilty man. DNA exonerations have shattered confidence in the criminal justice system by exposing how often we have convicted the innocent and let the guilty walk free. In this unsettling in-depth analysis, Brandon Garrett examines what went wrong in the cases of the first 250 wrongfully convicted people to be exonerated by DNA testing. Based on trial transcripts, Garrett’s investigation into the causes of wrongful convictions reveals larger patterns of incompetence, abuse, and error. Evidence corrupted by suggestive eyewitness procedures, coercive interrogations, unsound and unreliable forensics, shoddy investigative practices, cognitive bias, and poor lawyering illustrates the weaknesses built into our current criminal justice system. Garrett proposes practical reforms that rely more on documented, recorded, and audited evidence, and less on fallible human memory. Very few crimes committed in the United States involve biological evidence that can be tested using DNA. How many unjust convictions are there that we will never discover? Convicting the Innocent makes a powerful case for systemic reforms to improve the accuracy of all criminal cases.

You Have the Right to Remain Innocent by James J. Duane Pdf

An urgent, compact manifesto that will teach you how to protect your rights, your freedom, and your future when talking to police. Law professor James J. Duane became a viral sensation thanks to a 2008 lecture outlining the reasons why you should never agree to answer questions from the police--especially if you are innocent and wish to stay out of trouble with the law. In this timely, relevant, and pragmatic new book, he expands on that presentation, offering a vigorous defense of every citizen's constitutionally protected right to avoid self-incrimination. Getting a lawyer is not only the best policy, Professor Duane argues, it's also the advice law-enforcement professionals give their own kids. Using actual case histories of innocent men and women exonerated after decades in prison because of information they voluntarily gave to police, Professor Duane demonstrates the critical importance of a constitutional right not well or widely understood by the average American. Reflecting the most recent attitudes of the Supreme Court, Professor Duane argues that it is now even easier for police to use your own words against you. This lively and informative guide explains what everyone needs to know to protect themselves and those they love.

Innocent by Kevin McLaughlin,Opwonya Innocent Pdf

Opwonya Innocent was born three years after unrest started in northern Uganda and three years before the formation of the anti-government Lord's Resistance Army led by Joseph Kony. Death came to his village when he was only seven, and soon his parents required him to sleep miles away from home for safety. At ten he was abducted by Kony's army and taken to a training camp for child soldiers, where brutality and violence became his new reality. After a narrow escape he was taken by government soldiers to a counseling center before returning to his family, now without the guidance of a father. Since that time, Innocent has exhibited extraordinary resilience, pushing through these and many other challenges, ultimately securing a position which has allowed him to come to the aid of countless children in Uganda facing much of the same hardship. The book reveals, in his own words, Innocent's struggle to heal from the trauma he experienced, a growing awareness of a desire to help others and his tireless effort to realize meaningful, positive change. Innocent's inspiring story embodies the triumph of hope and determination over pain, trauma and fear.

Anguish of the Innocent by Ellen Williamson Pdf

ANGUISH OF THE INNOCENT is a story about how innocent people suffer because of the guilty and the extent some would go to defend them. How can the vengeful actions of one person cause so much pain and anguish to so many innocent people? How could Joshua and Louisa Posey’s lives of peace and tranquility be so greatly effected by one man? Wade Posey and John Mayo see the pain caused by this single act of revenge and take it upon themselves to prove the innocence of their friend, Joshua Posey. Mattie Posey Mayo is caught up in helping protect her dearest friends. She takes extreme measures and is put in danger in her efforts to keep them from the clutches of the Ku Klux Klan. How could the course of Billy Richard’s entire future be so drastically changed by this same action? His grief over the death of his father and the possibility of the death of an innocent man causes him to react in ways that would change his life forever. John Mayo compromises his integrity and goes to great lengths to help him. Some said it all started at the wedding of Mattie Posey and John Mayo - but I really think it started long before then. I suppose Red Sawyer had it in his heart to lash out at some black man, some black family - any black family - it was just that Louisa Posey exerted a bit of independence which Red interpreted as defiance. Red hated defiance, which was difficult to understand since he defied much of the social decorum of his time. He had no idea how his one act of revenge would affect so many innocent people in Philadelphia, Mississippi or how the people he cared about most would suffer from one cowardly act. He should have known, but revenge dominated his thoughts, determined his actions and set the course of a lot of lives. VENGEANCE IS MINE; I WILL REPAY, SAITH THE LORD. (The Bible - Romans 12:19b)
