Wrongful Conviction

Righteous Convictions - Journalist, Attorney, and Writer Emily Bazelon

Jason speaks with Emily Bazelon whose upbringing in a family of super achieving sisters and politically active parents forged a journalist on a path to change the world with words. Coincidentally, that drive caused her path to cross Jason’s in a serendipitous way.

Hosted by celebrated criminal justice reform advocate and founding board member of the Innocence Project Jason Flom, Wrongful Conviction features intimate conversations with men and women who have spent years in prison for crimes they maintain they did not commit. Some have been fully exonerated and reunited with family and friends while others continue to languish, with some even facing execution on death row.

Each episode peels back the layers behind the stories of those who have found themselves caught in a legal system gone wrong, with illuminating insights  from lawyers and leading experts sharing their in-depth knowledge about each case, from prison visits and courtroom battles to reexamined crime scenes and witness interviews . This gripping series reveals the tragedy of injustice…as well as the triumph that is possible when people step up and demand change.
