Wrongfully Yours
A place where I host conversations with people who have been impacted by wrongful convictions - sometimes this is an exoneree, a family member of an exoneree, a justice official, a filmmaker, a student...I'm really open to speaking with anyone because I think we all have such interesting and unique perspectives to bring around this issue in an effort to challenge assumptions, surface uncomfortable truths, and foster critical thinking about how justice is pursued and portrayed.

Episode 18 - John Edwards and the Ohio 4 (continued)

In this powerful and deeply unsettling episode of Wrongfully Yours, Kelly continues her conversations with John Edwards, a man who has spent more than 32 years incarcerated for a double homicide he maintains he did not commit despite no physical evidence linking him to the murders.
Throughout the conversation, he reflects on survival, faith, resilience, and accountability, and he acknowledges his past mistakes while firmly asserting innocence in the crime that cost him decades of freedom. From prison, he has become a published author, screenwriter, mentor to at-risk youth, and advocate for justice, continuing to fight not only for his own freedom, but for systemic accountability.
This episode exposes the devastating human cost of informant-driven prosecutions, prosecutorial misconduct, and the nearly impossible road from conviction to exoneration.
