Once DNA evidence became available it turned out that a surprising number of individuals serving prison time for major offenses were innocent and wrongly convicted. In 2010, The Innocence Project website reported as 18% rate of wrongful convictions subsequently overturned, and up to 2004 more that 6% of capital cases had been found to be wrongful convictions according to the Center on Wrongful Convictions at Northwestern University. Visit the website for the Innocence Project to find out whether your state allows a defendant to appeal for DNA testing after a conviction. Write a brief essay on the conditions under which your state allows DNA testing. Discuss the number of states that do not allow post-conviction DNA testing and the number of states that provide any compensation for individuals who were wrongly convicted.
