Western is participating in Wrongful Conviction Day by bringing out of the shadows the real impacts of wrongul convictions. We hope that the campus community and public will come to hear our guest speaker, and raise awareness about wrongful convictions.

Our guest speaker, Jamie Nelson, was convicted and served time for a crime that never happened, TWICE! After years spent in prison, including 15 months in solitary, he will tell his story, and speak about wrongful conviction in general, and its effects on individuals and society.

Brought to you by the Sociology Department, Faculty of Law, and the Pre-Law Society.

Everyone welcome!
