Wrongful convictions are not just the stuff of true-crime pro-
grams and prime time television. Wrongful conviction occurs
when a person who is factually and morally innocent of a crime
is nevertheless convicted and imprisoned. Since 1989, there
have been over 2,800 exonerations of people who were wrong-
fully convicted in the US, including at least 90 Ohioans. These
cases include those in which a death sentence was imposed.
