Champions of Justice: Harriet Speaks About Wrongful Conviction Day

In honor of International Wrongful Conviction Day which was October 2, Harriet will read a piece by John Grisham written as the introduction to a recently published book called Champions of Justice: Inside The Fight Against Wrongful Convictions edited by Dr. Saul Kassin. The book highlights exonerees, lawyers, forensic scientists, journalists and authors: all part of the worldwide Innocence Network. The 23 chapters are individually written by a "champion" of innocence. Grisham has been very outspoken about wrongful conviction along with serving on the Board of Directors for two Innocence organizations. He is the author of over 50 books. His most recent books are works of nonfiction: Framed and Shaken: The Rush To Execute An Innocent Man.
