Hi, everybody. Tom Woods here. Very interesting conversation today. We're joined by Rebecca

Brown, who's director of policy at something called the Innocence Project. And the Innocence

project seeks to prevent and reveal wrongful convictions and assure compensation for the wrongfully

convicted upon release from prison.

So that generates a lot of questions about how is it that people are wrongfully convicted?

What goes wrong? Is it corruption? What's really happening here that we have so many cases of this?

And the story of the Innocence Project itself is just very, very interesting

and not enough people know about it. In fact, I didn't know about it until relatively recently.

So we want to introduce it to you today. Rebecca, welcome to the show.

Thanks for having me. What an interesting and important thing it is that you and the Innocence

project are doing. I found out about it because my friend Ben Settle on Facebook did a fundraiser for it, I guess, on his birthday, which is a relatively new thing.

You can ask your friends that if you really want to make me feel good on my birthday, you can donate to my cause.

And that was how I found out about the Innocence Project.
