Mark Godsey: The System's Blindness to Injustice
This event will feature Mark Godsey, the director of the Ohio Innocence Project and acclaimed author of Blind Injustice.
In his book, “Drawing upon stories from his own career, Godsey shares how innate psychological flaws in judges, police, lawyers, and juries coupled with a ‘tough on crime’ environment can cause investigations to go awry, leading to the convictions of innocent people.”
Founded in 2010, the Vanguard Court Watch goes into 8 courts in California including San
Francisco, Sacramento and Yolo Counties to monitor and
report on everyday injustice in the court system. Our operations have
expanded to include our weekly Everyday Injustice Podcast, national
criminal justice reform coverage, a daily newsletter, and focuses on
wrongful convictions, felony murder reform and the progressive
prosecution movement. Our newest project, The Vanguard Incarcerated Press (VIP), amplifies the voices of incarcerated individuals facing injustices within the criminal legal system.
