With renewed energy and purpose, we are excited to continue our work. In 2025, we remain committed to fighting for justice and advocating for our wrongfully convicted clients, ensuring their voices are heard and their stories are shared.
As we start 2025, we reflect on the milestones of 2024. We had the privilege of welcoming two of our clients, David Bintz and Manuel Cucuta, home. Both lost decades of their lives and are now focused on rebuilding. https://t.co/OGiwP0xu9H

With so little time until #MarcellusWilliams is set to be executed tomorrow, Sept. 24th at 6 p.m., our best tool is our voice. We must make as much noise as possible in these final hours, as public pressure can make all the difference in the moments leading up to an execution.
