Meet Jimmy Pontoon. At just 20 years old, Jimmy lost his future to a wrongful conviction. He has now spent 40 years fighting to clear his name.

When asked how it felt to be charged in 1984, Jimmy said, “I couldn’t believe it. How could they find me guilty for something like that?”

This spring, Georgia Innocence Project and Jimmy are actively fighting his wrongful conviction.

Will you make a gift today to help us continue to support innocent people like Jimmy?
