The California Innocence Project (CIP) is a non-profit organization at California Western School of Law in San Diego, California, United States, which provides pro bono legal services to individuals who maintain their factual innocence of crime(s) for which they have been convicted. CIP's mission is to exonerate wrongly convicted inmates through the use of DNA and other evidence. CIP has succeeded in freeing 11 incarcerated individuals since its inception in 1999.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://californiainnocenceproject.org/about-the-project )〕 As a law school clinical program, CIP provides educational experience to students enrolled in its clinic. Working alongside CIP staff attorneys, clinic students investigate and litigate cases where there is strong evidence of innocence. CIP attorneys and students pursue cases by securing expert witnesses and advocating for their clients during evidentiary hearings and trials. Each year, CIP reviews more than 2,000 claims of innocence from inmates convicted in Southern California.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://californiainnocenceproject.org/submit-a-case/submit-a-case )〕 == History ==
The California Innocence Project was founded in 1999 at California Western School of Law in San Diego, California, by Director Justin Brooks and Law Professor Jan Stiglitz. CIP was the fourth innocence project to form in the United States as part of the national innocence movement 〔 or Innocence Network.
