"Our policy work addresses each of the contributors to wrongful convictions –eyewitness misidentification, misapplication of forensic science, false confessions, unreliable jailhouse informant testimony, and inadequate defense. In addition, the Innocence Project promotes laws that ensure robust access to post conviction DNA testing and evidence retention, as well as legal mechanisms for the wrongfully convicted to achieve relief based on new, non-DNA, evidence of innocence."
