The Innocence Project uses the same "high technology" and DNA science to exonerate people that prosecutors use to convict people.
"The Innocence Project was founded in 1992 by Barry C. Scheck and Peter J. Neufeld at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law at Yeshiva University to assist prisoners who could be proven innocent through DNA testing. To date, more than 300 people in the United States have been exonerated by DNA testing, including 18 who served time on death row. These people served an average of 14 years in prison before exoneration and release."
