Today is quite possibly the best day of the year for man’s best friend — it’s National Dog Day!
To celebrate, we’re highlighting exonerees’ relationships with their canine companions and how they’ve helped them navigate a new world and rebuild their lives as free people.
We’re talking about folks like Malcolm Alexander, who was serving a life sentence in Louisiana State Penitentiary for a crime he didn’t commit, when he met his dog, Inn (short for Innocence).
The Innocence Project exonerates the wrongly convicted through DNA testing and reforms the criminal justice system to prevent future injustice. www.innocenceproject.org
