“The Innocence Project” gave Steven Avery back to Wisconsin, who...the MINUTE he was out of prison, raped one woman (she didn’t press charges because he said he’s come back and kill her if she did) and raped and murdered another woman (Theresa Halbach) with the coercion of his 16 year old nephew...who is now also going to prison for a very long time.

I had not heard about this, thanks for the info.

The country needs something like the innocence project, in theory at least and, in cases in which somebody gets freed on DNA evidence, there can't really be much to argue about.

Shame that Janet Reno is on the board of directors of the innocence project. That pretty much guarantees that Frank Fuster will die in prison for imaginary crimes.

Yep. They took this “Success Story” off of their website the absolute minute Avery was arrested. Prior to that, Avery was their Poster Child for a wrongful conviction. (Avery HAD a rap sheet as long as his arm prior to this arrest. WHAT is the criteria they use to free the ‘wrongfully convicted?’ Can’t find THAT on their site, either.)

Funny. They NEVER track who re-offends after they ‘break them out of prison’ for the GOOD of Society. *SMIRK*

Thanks for putting up with my ‘bent nose’ on this subject. :)
