About Me


11Sept2007: 207 Innocent People Have Been Exonerated By The Innocence Project , these people spent a combined total of over 2,500 years in prison for crimes they did not commit.
blog section . Please read and stay informed.Only through knowledge and awareness can we fight to fix the system!
We are an organization located in Tampa, FL that assists other Wrongful Conviction Organizations by researching the scientific portion of cases of possible erroneous convictions and innocent persons in prison. If the criminal justice system is given a 10% rate of error--on any given day we are imprisoning over 200,000 innocent persons everyday in America's prisons. And since we executed 53 men last year, we might have killed at least 5 that were innocent. At screamingforsunshine, we believe that every person, whether believed innocent or guilty, deserves another review of their case by an organization which does not receive funds from the government.
We also have a group page that lists protests and rallies, etc. We are very community oriented and involved in politics. Join our group if you would like to keep a breast on important issues that affect your freedom! groups.myspace.com/screamingforsunshine ..
