Prof. Murray Speaks on KCRW's To The Point Episode, "How Many Innocent Americans Are Sitting in Jail?"
Professor JaneAnne Murray was a guest on KCRW's To The Point for an episode entitled "How Many Innocent Americans Are Sitting in Jail?" The episode discussed how local district attorneys get re-elected for putting people in jail, and now some prosecutors are part of a movement to get some inmates out. It's not just new evidence or witnesses changing their stories—it's also the pressure on innocent people to plead guilty.
