Wrongful Convictions
It's high time that we step back and take a long, hard look at our
justice system. There are far too many men and women being
exonerated after wrongful convictions. Just Google the term -
wrongfully convicted exoneration in 2008 - and you will find no less
than a dozen people who have been exonerated this year!! Also, you
will find that together they have had over 100 years of life stolen
by a system that promises JUSTICE FOR ALL.
