“Nothing about me truly matters unless I matter to others. –Joan Treppa, social justice advocate”
― Reclaiming Lives: Pursuing Justice For Six Innocent Men
― Reclaiming Lives: Pursuing Justice For Six Innocent Men
“a ring of jailhouse informants-- or 'snitches'--... allegedly received lenient sentences as well as food, drugs, sex and special privileges from detectives... It's not difficult to imahine why a prisoner-informant would lie about overhearing a confession when it means real material benefits... [and] prosecutors are often motivated to make those informants sound believable to a judge. Testimony from a single jailhouse informant is enough to convict a person for a charge as serious as murder... [Snitch] testimony [is] the leading cause of wrongful convictions in US capital cases."
