Wrongful Conviction Day

Wrongful Conviction Day was created by the Innocence Network, a group of organizations that provide pro bono legal and investigative services. Archie Williams, pictured above at America's Got Talent, spent 37 years in prison for a crime he did not commit. How did that happen? As Archie said, "I knew I was innocent, I didn’t commit a crime, but being a poor Black kid, I didn’t have the economic ability to fight the state of Louisiana.”
