Conviction Integrity Units

Conviction Integrity Units are specialized teams within criminal justice agencies dedicated to reviewing and ensuring the fairness of past convictions. Their goal is to identify and correct wrongful convictions by re-examining evidence, investigating new facts, or addressing errors in the original trial process. These units promote justice and public trust by diligently working to prevent and rectify mistakes, ensuring that only the truly guilty are convicted and that innocent individuals are not wrongfully imprisoned.
