John, we have incredible news to share: Danny Davis returned home Tuesday after more than 32 years in prison for a murder that DNA evidence proves he did not commit.

At the time of his conviction, Danny was just 20 years old. Now 52, Danny walked out of prison on Tuesday, Nov. 12, and reunited with his family. 

Today, we celebrate Danny’s return home after more than three decades behind bars. On his car ride home, Danny shared with his lawyers that he hopes other wrongly convicted people will see him and know to keep fighting. Danny is represented by Illinois Innocence Project lawyers Lauren Kaeseberg and Maria de Arteaga, Innocence Project Attorney Vanessa Potkin, and Exoneration Project attorneys Lauren Myerscough-Mueller and Karl Leonard. Learn more about Danny’s case and the fight for his full exoneration.

John: A major part of our work to restore freedom includes helping wrongfully convicted people rebuild their lives post-release. To help Danny with this transition, you can visit his Amazon wish list here.

Thank you, 

Innocence Project
