The Innocence Project was founded in 1992 by Barry C. Scheck and Peter J. Neufeld at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law at Yeshiva University to assist prisoners who could be proven innocent through DNA testing. To date, more than 300 people in the have been exonerated by DNA testing, including 18 who served time on . These people served an average of 13 years in prison before exoneration and release. The Innocence Project’s full-time staff attorneys and Cardozo clinic students provided direct representation or critical assistance in most of these cases. The Innocence Project’s groundbreaking use of DNA technology to free innocent people has provided irrefutable proof that wrongful convictions are not isolated or rare events but instead arise from systemic defects. Now an independent nonprofit organization closely affiliated with Cardozo School of Law at Yeshiva University, the Innocence Project’s mission is nothing less than to free the staggering numbers of innocent people who remain incarcerated and to bring substantive reform to the system responsible for their unjust imprisonment. table of contents Letter from the Co-Directors, Board Chair and Executive Director...... 5

Since our founding in 1992, the Innocence Project has been a leading force in improving the American criminal justice system. Our pioneering use of post-conviction DNA testing to exonerate innocent people of crimes they did not commit has made people in all aspects of the system question their strongly held beliefs about its infallibility. Our years of hard work to expose the cracks in the system made great strides in 2013. became the 50th state in the nation to enact a post-conviction DNA statute. three men were exonerated years after they were wrongly convicted, based in part on faulty hair analysis and scientifically invalid testimony by FBI analysts, the FBI and the Department of Justice agreed to collaborate with the Innocence Project and the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers on an unprecedented review of more than 2,000 criminal cases in which the FBI conducted microscopic hair analysis of crime scene evidence. And thanks to our unwavering persistence, sent a powerful message to prosecutors across the nation by sending former Williamson County District Attorney Ken Anderson to jail for the intentional misconduct that contributed to the wrongful conviction of Michael Morton, who was wrongly imprisoned for the murder of his wife for 25 years. Unfortunately, there is much work to be done. But we will continue to let the lessons learned from our courageous clients help lead the way. The recent exoneration of Gerard Richardson, who served 19 years because of faulty bite mark analysis used in his trial, is helping to guide the work of our strategic litigation unit, which has adopted an impact litigation strategy to prevent unscientific and unreliable forensic practices from being used in our court rooms and criminal investigations. And speaking of unreliable forensic practices, thanks, in part, to the advocacy of the Innocence Project, earlier this year the Department of Justice and the National Institute of Standards and Technology convened the first ever National Forensic Science Commission to develop standards for forensic disciplines. And shortly after the commission’s first meeting, the Senate Commerce Committee unanimously voted out of committee a bill that would establish scientific review and standards for forensic sciences. These and other achievements are clear signs of progress in the American law enforcement and judicial systems, which are becoming truer to their purpose — to seek and protect truth and justice. Read this year’s Innocence Project Annual Report for a snapshot of our 2013 victories. Your support, without question, makes our work possible.

When Randy Arledge wrote to the Innocence Project in 1999, his words conveyed his desperation: “Everybody wishes me luck, but no one will help me,” he wrote. Randy had already served nearly 16 years in prison for a crime that he did not commit. He had been wrongfully convicted of killing a young woman in a small Texas town and was sentenced to 99 years although there was no physical evidence connecting him to the crime. In describing the twists and turns of his case, Randy wrote, “. . . It sounds like a comedy show, I know, but it’s true and really happened . . . I can serve the rest of the time, but I do not think it’s right[;] the real killer gets away with the crime . . . Would you please help me?”

Many wrongfully convicted people, like Randy, write to the Innocence Project as their last resort. These individuals have explored every other truth-seeking channel: investigation by law enforcement, trial and appeals, and yet freedom eludes .

In the course of one year, the Innocence Project receives an estimated 2,400 letters from incarcerated people requesting investigation into their innocence claims. The need is great.

In 2013, the Innocence Project’s Intake Department, comprised of a small but steadfast staff of nine, processed more than 4,000 cases.

On a recent visit to our office, Gerard Richardson reflected on his relationship with the Innocence Project: “[T]he students, the whole team working on weekends, doing whatever they could for me ... I love all of them for real. They helped me get something back that I couldn’t get on my own. I consider them my friends for life, not just my legal team.” Our mission is to exonerate people who are serving prison sentences for crimes they didn’t commit. In 2013, we worked on more than 200 active cases. Gerard’s case was one of them.

He was serving a 30-year sentence for murder. In 2013, the Innocence Project secured new His conviction was based on testimony from DNA testing of evidence from Gerard’s case. a forensic dentist who that bite mark The results proved what Gerard had claimed analysis, an unscientific and unreliable forensic all along: he was innocent.

Exonerees face the seemingly formidable task of reinventing their lives and their identities when they walk out of prison. Many of them have lived decades within the rigid confines of prison. Navigating the intense transition back into the “outside world” can be distressing and disorienting.

Before Allen had even left prison, the Innocence Project Social Work team began working with his mother to help ease his transition home. Allen has long lived with mental health issues and needed specific medical care upon his release. Though Allen was fortunate to leave prison and still have a strong relationship in tact with his family, his mother, who would be his sole caregiver, was of elderly age and needed help in securing low-cost medical treatment until he would receive financial compensation from the state of Missouri. The Innocence Project Social Work Department helped Allen get the medicine and care he needed. Today, he lives with his sister and mother outside of St. Louis. His mother says, “It was hard when he got out. It’s still hard. The good thing is, I can call Karen (Innocence Project social worker), tell her what I need, and she helps me as much as she can. When I have a question, she can answer it. And she’s helped to connect me to organizations where I live that also help me. And she helps George, too. One thing I can say about everyone at the Innocence Project is that with them we’re not treated like clients; we’re treated like family. I thank God for you all.”

More than 300 exonerations have taught that our country’s criminal justice system isn’t trustworthy. Our safety and justice are compromised by bad identification procedures, faulty interrogation practices, improper forensic science, inadequate defense lawyers and law enforcement error and misconduct that lead to innocent people being convicted and those who committed the crimes going unpunished.

Damon Thibodaux was exonerated in September of 2012 from Louisiana’s Angola prison where he had served more than 15 years on death row after bring wrongfully convicted of murdering his 14-year-old cousin. Before he was released, the Innocence Project had begun working with CBS News to produce a 48 Hours episode that would reveal the truth behind Damon’s case — that DNA testing had proven that he was not the killer and that the real perpetrator had yet to be identified. Earlier this year, the episode aired, allowing Damon to tell his story. It was perhaps the first time that Damon declared his innocence to an audience who wanted to listen and was willing to believe him.

The Innocence Project believes that every exoneree’s story should be told. It is because of these courageous stories that we are able to drive true reform. Damon’s story, broadcast across the television airwaves and the internet, introduced people to the power of DNA testing and to some of the issues within law enforcement and the courtroom that can send people to prison for crimes they didn’t commit.
