Way overdue. Jefferson made the point in saying he would rather 100 guilty men go free than to convict one innocent man. That should be ratio for wrongful convictions.
I do think bringing race into the argument is unneeded-but you did so it is worth noting that FBI stats reveal 50% of all murders in the US are Black on Black. So, you would predict more mistaken convictions. Statistics don't lie, writers do.
Your comments are incoherent and vacuous. Nobody brought "race" into this article...they offered a bar chart separated by ethnicity. This was a well written article...typical of what we are lucky to read by the authors. You are a sniveling whiner who should be picking up roadside trash on the Beeline Hwy. Don't like...don't read...don't subscribe. Most of all...resist the temptation to contribute.

Agree with your race comment. What’s so wrong with statistics? Like science they tell truth to power.
