Wrongful Convictions presents both scholarly research and proposed reforms designed to reduce the extent of sentencing errors and better compensate and reintegrate the wrongfully convicted, many of whom have spent years in prison for crimes they did not commit. The book also underscores the public safety threats that are posed by wrongful convictions, since for every wrongful conviction, the actual offender may remain free to commit more crimes.
