CONTINUING LEGAL EDUCATION: EXONERATING
THE INNOCENT
HOW CAN WE COLLECTIVELY AS A COLLEGE AND INDIVIDUALLY AS FELLOWS MAKE A MEANINGFUL DIFFERENCE IN FREEING THE INNOCENT FROM ANOTHER UNJUST DAY BEHIND BARS? EXONERATING THE INNOCENT: ADVOCACY AND ETHICS, A CLE PROGRAM HOSTED BY THE ACCESS TO JUSTICE AND LEGAL SERVICES COMMITTEE AND THE DISTINGUISHED PRO BONO FELLOWS COMMITTEE AT THE 2023 SAN DIEGO ANNUAL MEETING, WAS ONE OF OUR BEST ATTENDED CLE PROGRAMS. OUR DISTINGUISHED, DIVERSE PANEL NOT ONLY HIGHLIGHTED THE EXCELLENT WORK DONE BY INNOCENCE PROJECTS, ACTL FELLOWS, AND OTHERS WORKING TO FREE THE INNOCENT, BUT ALSO DISCUSSED A NUMBER OF WAYS IN WHICH WE CAN GET INVOLVED IN EXONERATING WRONGLY CONVICTED AND INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS.
