Shortcut: Going to Jail for a Crime You Didn't Commit

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed. We like to believe our justice system gets it right, but what happens when the people behind bars are innocent? In Falsely Convicted, investigative journalist Neil Mercer examines the shocking miscarriages of justice that have seen innocent people imprisoned for years or even decades, and joins us to discuss how these failures happen.
