Wrongful Convictions
On Tuesday, February 14, we will have the opportunity to hear form Terrill Swift, a member of the "Englewood Four", a group of men who were wrongfully convicted of the rape and murder of a Chicago woman in 1994 after confessing to it as juveniles. Please go to the Center on Wrongful Convictions website in order to learn about this and other cases of wrongful conviction prior to our speaker on Tuesday. Feel free to blog your initial responses for this week (you will definitely be blogging your reactions to the speaker on Tuesday).
