Exoneree Scott Hornoff on winning state support for the wrongly convicted
Episode 12
Published 4 years, 9 months ago
Description
One hundred and twenty-nine people were exonerated of crimes in the United States last year, meaning they were cleared of their guilt and set free after wrongful convictions. Scott Hornoff is one such exoneree. In 2003, he was released from prison after spending more than six years behind bars for a crime he didn’t commit. Now, he’s the advocate behind a new Rhode Island law that will provide money and support for people who have suffered the same fate.
Hornoff sits down with Globe RI’s Amanda Milkovits to discuss his own experience and what the state owes people like him.
