Special Guest: Pulitzer Prize Winning Investigative Reporter Maurice Possley

In this episode, we dive into the world of criminal justice with Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author, Maurice Possley. With his extensive experience in writing about, investigating, and consulting on issues related to criminal justice both in the United States and abroad, Possley sheds light on the crucial topic of national registration of exoneration.

 

Possley emphasizes the significance of having a nationally recognized system to register exonerations. He explains that such a system would not only serve as a comprehensive database but also play a pivotal role in uncovering flaws and biases within the criminal justice system. By recording and analyzing the cases of those wrongfully convicted, a national registry can help identify patterns, systemic issues, and areas that need improvement.
