Resources from the Innocence Project and GOOD will grab your students’ attention—and give them an inside glimpse of prison life.

The Innocence Project

VISIT WEBSITE:

Studies reveal that around 2.3 to 5 percent of prisoners in the United States are innocent. To put this in perspective, this means that if just one percent of all prisoners are innocent, more than 20,000 innocent people are in prison.

The Innocence Project is dedicated to freeing wrongfully convicted people through DNA testing. It combines science, law, and social justice to make a powerful case for individual freedom and policy reform. Since the organization was founded in 1992, more than 250 people have been exonerated—17 of these people had been sentenced to death. 

Check out the Innocence Project website. It uses jaw-dropping statistics, personal stories, and truth telling videos to help your students understand why our current criminal justice system needs to change. Your students will explore different activities from eyewitness misidentification videos to interactive maps that show how easy it is to mistakenly put a person behind bars.

Eyewitness Misidentification

Could you remember key information if you were a witness at a crime scene? Eyewitness identification is the greatest cause of unjust convictions in the United States. One wrong detail could send an innocent person behind bars for years or even life. Here are interactive resources for your students that include video, case profiles, and research on the causes of wrongful convictions.

Snapshot of Exonerations

In this activity, students can click through interactive maps looking at exonerations, causes, and reform in their own state and others. Students will have the chance to read powerful stories of wrongful convictions. For a dose of reality, have your students click on their own state to find out how it compares with the rest of the nation.
