Episode 3: Desperate deals

  • Summary

  • Anecdotally, innocence advocates know that their clients sometimes take deals to get out of prison - instead of continuing to fight to clear their names. Now, new research from the University of Wisconsin law school puts some numbers around this trend. The data show that these desperate deals are common - and that even people with new evidence of innocence have a hard time turning them down.

    Record of Wrong is a KARE 11 podcast that delves deep into the world of the criminal justice system, from the perspective of the people appealing their convictions. This six-part series hosted by KARE 11's Emily Haavik examines the towering obstacles to prove innocence after conviction, and the burden those people carry long after they have been freed.
