My son is a hero!
He was part of a Conviction Review Unit in the office of the District Attorney in Brooklyn, NY to vacate the convictions of 14 wrongly convicted men.

Coerced or faked confessions is part of a national problem as the story headline says. The men were all minorities.
Congrats to the team and the DA! Job well done.
I hope the mayor gives them some recognition (yeah, I know, I'm being a mom).
Aljazeera? Did he get terrorists off the hook?

These convicts were turned loose over the past two or three years.
I'm sure most of them are already back in prison for new crimes.
