7 Shocking Details Exposed In The Innocence Files


Though there have been several True Crime documentaries that have highlighted the work of the Innocence Project, Netflix’s latest collaboration with the renowned legal advocacy group is arguably the best to date. By using several cases as a lens through which to view broader issues that lead to wrongful convictions in the US, the Innocence Files manages to shine a light on systemic problems with the criminal justice system while maintaining an empathic connection to the lives of those whose stories they tell.

Understandably, the series has no shortage of troubling moments, with viewers getting to experience first hand a mere fraction of the frustration and helplessness felt by the subjects and their families.

Today we want to take a look at some of the most outrageous details exposed in the series, focusing on facts that were shocking, unbelievable, or that simply made us angry. Admittedly, this list is going to be subjective, but we tried to find a balance between things that stood out to us in our own viewings as well as some of the popular reactions we’ve seen online. If there’s something you think we’ve missed, make sure to tell us about it in the comments below.
