Hey @JetBlue. I was supposed to travel with wrongfully convicted people to New Orleans on Thursday for the @InnocenceNtwrk and I was just rebooked on a later flight. I will miss this day where I am supposed to be supported newly freed people. This is not ok! @NEInnocence

So grateful for this inspiring community. #woundedbutnotbroken
Wrongful incarceration brought them together. Now they stand shoulder-to-shoulder with each other and in support of everyone still fighting for freedom. This is what community looks like. This is the Exoneree Network.

The data about wrongful convictions out of Suffolk County is devastating. If that makes you angry, come through! We want to see you at our Rally & March tomorrow at 1 pm. #bospoli #mapoli

This whole thread is a must read.
🧵 This week, staggering data was released by @exonerationlist on race & wrongful convictions nationally, incl. "convictions that led to murder exonerations with Black defendants were almost 50% more likely to include misconduct by police officers." https://t.co/FdBLRePA1l (1/7)

Exoneree Ray Champagne died suddenly 30 months after being freed. The state wrongfully imprisoned him for 41 years, then offered him nothing while he was alive. @MassAGO can still compensate his family & make sure other exonerees don't wait any longer.

Ray Champagne was released in 2020 after spending more than 40 years in prison for a murder he did not commit.

Yes he truly was. A shooting star. A supernova.
Ray was the brightest of lights in this cruel world. Raymond Champagne, who served 41 years for wrongful conviction, died 30 months after winning freedom https://t.co/iI9BWBLtqi via @BostonGlobe

Powerful piece that captures so much about the struggles and triumphs of the freed and exonerated people I am so fortunate to know. @CPCSnews
A must-read by @GlobeAndrewRyan, capturing the leadership of @EllisKSean & @RayChampagne8 of the very special Exoneree Network. As more wrongful convictions unravel, exonerees help one another adjust to life beyond bars - The Boston Globe

It shouldn’t be this hard to rebuild after 19 years served for a wrongful conviction. Help Shaun rebuild his life

My name is Shaun Jenkins, and I spent 19 years in prison for a murder that I did not commit.… Shaun Jenkins needs your support for Help Shaun rebuild his life

After 48 years in prison, Tyrone Clark was released last Wednesday with only the clothes on his back. Donate and retweet if you agree with me that this is not how we should treat the wrongfully convicted.

Some good news in the darkness.
THREAD: We thought you might need some good news, and we are thrilled we have some: Yesterday, James Watson, an innocent man, walked free from prison 40 years after his wrongful murder conviction in Boston.
