On March 18, 1963, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark decision in Gideon v. Wainwright. The Center has seen first-hand that qualified, competent counsel is critical to safeguarding the rights of the accused and protecting innocent clients from being wrongfully convicted.

Happy Birthday to our client, Harold Godwin! Harold has been in prison since 1995 for a crime he did not commit. The limitations of postconviction remedies make Harold’s case a difficult one but the Center is considering all potential avenues to pursue in his case.

In 1988, Small was charged with killing a woman in her store. In 2016, represented by the Center, a judge set Small free. Small says what he gained in compensation will never replace what he lost, including the death of his mother while he was in prison. tinyurl.com/tv8myv4r
