The Long Road to Freedom
A Discussion About Wrongful Convictions In Massachusetts
Sean Ellis, the subject of the 2020 Netflix docu-series, Trial 4, was exonerated in 2018 after spending nearly 22 years in prison for a crime he did not commit. Sentenced to life in prison, Sean Ellis always proclaimed his innocence and today advocates for justice for others who have suffered a wrongful conviction. Join us for a special evening, December 8 at 7 PM, featuring exoneree and Director of the Exoneree Network, Sean Ellis, in conversation with Lisa Kavanaugh, Trustee for the New England Innocence Project and director of the Committee for Public Counsel Services (CPCS) Innocence Program.
