Special Conversation with Innocence Project Exonerees

We are so excited to be partnering with the Innocence Project to offer an informative discussion about their amazing work and hear personal stories from individuals who were wrongfully convicted of a crime, leading to their exoneration by the organization.

 

Founded in 1992 by visionary attorneys Peter Neufeld and Barry Scheck, the Innocence Project has been at the forefront of criminal justice reform, using DNA and other scientific advancements to prove wrongful conviction.

 

At the event taking place in Tribeca, Manhattan, you will hear from Stacey Anderson, Legal Policy Analyst at the Innocence Project, and Rodney Roberts, Re-Entry Coach and Exoneree at the Innocence Project.

 

If you are interested in learning more about the criminal justice system of the United States, hearing impactful stories about wrongs made right, or simply looking for something interesting to do on a Friday afternoon, please join us!

 

Note: 75% of the ticket fee will go towards a donation to the Innocence Project's mission as a non-profit organization. If you would like to contribute an additional amount as an honorarium for Rodney's time, we will share an additional link in the confirmation email and 100% of that will go to Rodney.
