A diverse group of practitioners and scholars recently gathered for a working-group process to create the Miscarriages of Justice: Litigating Beyond Factual Innocence Guide. The hope is that this Guide will provide post-conviction litigators, conviction integrity prosecutors, judges, legislators, and wrongly convicted individuals themselves with innovative and creative approaches to addressing miscarriages of justice. In this episode, we are joined by the three authors of the Guide, Valena Beety Professor of Law and Deputy Director of the Academy for Justice at the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at Arizona State University; Karen Newirth, Founder and Principal, Newirth Law, PLLC; and Karen Thompson, Civil Rights Attorney, ACLU New Jersey. Our guests discuss the importance of this guide, how it can be used to create meaningful change, and where they see future research in this area going.
