About the Charity

Almost 900 years. That�s how long, collectively, 44 innocent men spent in prison for crimes they didn't commit � until MAIP helped restore their freedom. Focused on cases in DC, Maryland, and Virginia, MAIP rigorously screens and investigates innocence claims from prisoners and their families. It then represents prisoners in court or files clemency petitions (pro bono, of course) � achieving one of the highest success rates of any innocence organization in the country: three victories in the past 12 months alone. This work secures justice for the wrongly imprisoned and serves the public by revealing that the real perpetrators of a crime are still at large. MAIP also leads a policy reform effort whose improved legislation can prevent wrongful convictions before they happen. Returning innocent citizens to their rightful lives is, simply, the right thing to do.
