Innocence Project

The Innocence Project is a non-profit organization dedicated to exonerating wrongfully convicted individuals through DNA testing and other scientific advancements, and reforming the criminal justice system to prevent future injustice. Founded in 1992 by Barry C. Scheck and Peter J. Neufeld at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law at Yeshiva University, it has since helped to free or exonerate hundreds of wrongfully convicted people and pass transformative state laws and federal reforms to advance the innocence movement.
