Summary:Wrongful conviction addresses and incorporates numerous highly significant developments involving data, law, social science research, and the forensic sciences that relate to wrongful convictions in the American system of justice and that have occurred since the first edition was published in 2011. Coverage includes the incidence, correlates, causes, and consequences of wrongful convictions, as well as recommended reforms. New materials include reference to data made available in the National Registry of Exonerations, coverage of recent federal and state court decisions (including, for example, the cases featured in the Netflix series "Making a Murderer"), and tracking legislative and other policy innovations nationwide.
