About the Show
Created by 9th grade students at Benjamin Franklin High School for Finance & Information Technology @ Campus Magnet, this podcast series explores the real-life stories of people who were wrongfully convicted and later exonerated. Through research, reflection, and storytelling, students break down each case—from who these individuals were before their arrests to what went wrong in the justice system. Told in their own voices, each episode challenges us to think critically about fairness, truth, and who gets heard. These aren’t just stories from the past—these are lessons for today. This podcast is a How Can I? Production.
