John,

Yesterday morning, I had the pleasure of joining my client Felipe Rodriguez in court to witness his exoneration. I was overjoyed to see the Queens courtroom filled with family and friends who came out to support Felipe, who is now finally, as he said, “completely free” after 30 years. It was a wonderful way to end 2019.

With less than a day until 2020 begins, I’m thinking about the new year and the 200 clients we represent at any given time, all of whom are desperately fighting for their chance to be free. From assessing thousands of letters asking for help, to reforming laws and policies across the country, to helping exonerate innocent people — the work we do is only possible because of the support we receive from people like you.

John, with just hours left in 2019, will you make a tax-deductible gift today? Your donation will help free the innocent in 2020 and beyond. ([link removed])

Over the past 15 years at the Innocence Project, I’ve represented hundreds of clients in their fight for freedom. Each of these clients has not only made an indelible impact on my professional and personal life, but their cases have also helped transform the criminal justice system.

However, we know that innocent people are still being wrongfully convicted and until that ends, the Innocence Project will continue to fight for a more accurate and fair criminal justice system for all.

John, we know there is still so much work to be done. Make a tax-deductible year-end gift before midnight. ([link removed])

With thanks and best wishes for the new year,

Nina Morrison
