Everyone deserves a fair defense and a justice system that protects their rights. When our system fails, the consequences reach far beyond the courtroom.
Please join the Harris County Public Defender's Office and Harris County Precinct 1 Commissioner Rodney Ellis' office to hear from people who have been wrongfully convicted, and advocates working to address the failures that lead to wrongful convictions. Learn about the reforms that have made a difference the work still ahead to prevent wrongful convictions, and how you can play a role in improving our system.
