Synopsis
Imperfections in the criminal justice system have long intrigued the general public and worried scholars and legal practitioners. In "Wrongful Conviction," criminologists C. Ronald Huff and Martin Killias present an important collection of essays that analyzes cases of injustice across an array of legal systems, with contributors from North America, Europe and Israel. This collection includes a number of well-developed public-policy recommendations intended to reduce the instances of courts punishing innocents. It also offers suggestions for compensating more fairly those who are wrongfully convicted., A cross-national study that shows how various criminal justice systems are susceptible to wrongful convictions
