We are deeply saddened by the passing of Curtis Flowers, who spent nearly 23 years wrongfully incarcerated in Mississippi, much of that time on death row.
Curtis was finally released in 2019, but no amount of freedom could restore the years taken from him.
We extend our deepest condolences to Curtis's family and loved ones. May he rest in peace.

MYTH: If someone is innocent, the appeals process will eventually fix it.

The reality of post-conviction innocence work is much more complicated.

Finding evidence that supports a person's innocence and having a legal pathway for a court to consider that evidence are two different things. Legal rules, procedural requirements, deadlines, and the circumstances of an individual case can all affect what happens after conviction.

That's part of why innocence work can take years—and why uncovering new evidence may be only one step in a much longer fight.

Wrongful convictions are more than cases, statistics, and headlines.
They are years lost. Families changed. Lives interrupted.
Today, we honor those who have endured the unimaginable, those still fighting to prove their innocence, and the people who refuse to stop fighting alongside them.

Tomorrow is Wrongful Conviction Day and today marks one year since Eric Wright walked free.

One year ago today, Eric was released after spending 36 years wrongfully incarcerated. His story is a powerful reminder of why Wrongful Conviction Day matters.

Tomorrow, we recognize those who have been wrongfully convicted, those still fighting to prove their innocence, and the work that remains to prevent future injustices.

Today, we celebrate Eric’s freedom. Tomorrow, we continue the fight for it.

A wrongful conviction doesn’t affect just one person. Its impact reaches parents, children, spouses, siblings, and entire families who spend years waiting, advocating, and holding onto hope.

Their voices are part of the fight for justice, too.
