Frequently Asked Questions

How common is wrongful conviction in the U.S.?

Studies estimate that 4–6% of incarcerated individuals in the U.S. are innocent—meaning over 120,000 people may be behind bars for crimes they didn’t commit. For the wrongfully convicted, the system often says “no.” That’s where we come in.

Why do so many wrongful convictions happen?

The top contributors include:

• Coerced confessions

• Misconduct by law enforcement or prosecutors (involved in 54% of exoneration cases)

• Plea deals made under pressure (95% of convictions)

• Faulty eyewitness testimony

• Flawed or misused forensic science

We focus especially on misconduct and false confessions—often the reason traditional innocence clinics reject complex cases.

What’s the average time someone spends wrongfully incarcerated?

People spend an average of 11.5 years behind bars before being exonerated. Many lose far more—missing out on family milestones, education, and their livelihoods.

What makes Freedom Ain’t Free different from other legal aid organizations?

We’re founded by exonerees, built for those who’ve been told “your case is too messy.” We don’t shy away from complexity—we live it. If the system gave up on you, we won’t.

What kind of legal help do you provide?

Our services include:

• Post-conviction case reviews

• Support with reentry, expungement, and record clearing

• Community-based legal education

• Investigations into misconduct and coerced confessions

• Referrals to trusted legal professionals (PIs, attorneys, paralegals)

We operate across Detroit and Southeast Michigan, with broader outreach as capacity allows.
