‼️BREAKING: Robert's execution has been STAYED www.dallasnews.com/news/courts/...

Together, the 70+ organizations that make up the #InnocenceNetwork have secured 865 + exonerations to date. And we’re nowhere near finished. This #WrongfulConvictionDay, we recommit to freeing the innocent, preventing wrongful conviction, & supporting people when they come home.

It's #WrongfulConvictionDay and we are so grateful to @mayorwu.boston.gov for recognizing that "wrongful convictions are an injustice that robs an innocent person of their life, liberty, & dignity and has an immeasurable personal, familial, emotional, & societal cost." #mapoli #bospoli

🎉 BREAKING on #WrongfulConvictionDay! TIP client Eric Wright is FREE after nearly 36 years in prison for a crime he did not commit. His release is a moment of celebration—and a reminder of why we fight for justice. 🧵

Today, on Wrongful Conviction Day, we honor those who have suffered from the deep injustices of wrongful convictions. Each case represents not just a lost life, but shattered families and communities. Let us unite to raise awareness and advocate for truth and justice!

Our first #WrongfulConvictionDay event in New Hampshire! We are so grateful to exonerees Scott Hornoff and Kristine Bunch for sharing so much of themselves in order to create change. We must all learn from those most impacted. www.concordmonitor.com/2025/10/02/t...

Today marks the 12th annual Wrongful Conviction Day. Wrongful convictions don’t just harm the innocent—they also deeply impact survivors, families, and entire communities. More than 37,000 people have been harmed by these systemic injustices.

Today is #WrongfulConvictionDay and we are asking for your help. #RobertRoberson’s life is on the line. On Oct. 16, Texas plans to execute him — despite overwhelming medical evidence of his innocence.

Our former client Nick McGuffin was convicted of manslaughter in 2011 and spent nine years of a 10-year sentence wrongfully incarcerated before his conviction was overturned by a judge. www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/0...

Former Oregon Innocence Project client Jesse Johnson was freed in September 2023 after 25 years in custody, 17 of which were spent on Oregon’s death row. opb.org/article/2025...

"We deserve a system that admits mistakes rather than compounding them with an execution. Roberson’s life should not be the cost of Texas refusing to face the truth." Read from Texans speaking out to help stop Robert Roberson's execution. bit.ly/3KjceDK

Congratulations to our former client Nick McGuffin! Wrongful conviction is expensive, but it costs exonerees and their families most of all. Oregon must do better. We need real accountability from those responsible, not just $. www.opb.org/article/2025...
