The Mid-Atlantic Innocence Project will be holding a legal clinic at Matthews Memorial Baptist Church in Southeast Washington DC on Thursday November 12, 2009 at 6:30 PM.
The clinic will feature speeches from two local men who were wrongfully convicted and then later released, Aaron Michael Howard and Leslie Vass. We will then be breaking into intake sessions where those interested in our help can tell us about their case or their loved ones and MAIP can begin the process of evaluating their case.
What: Mid-Atlantic Innocence Project's first ever legal clinic
When: Thursday November 12, 2009 at 6:30 PM
Where: Matthews Memorial Baptist Church 2616 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd SE
Who: Anyone who wants to know more about MAIP or wants help with the case of someone they know. MAIP exonerees, Board members, staff members and law student volunteers will also be attending.
What to bring: Knowledge of the case to the best of your ability. If you have any legal docs we would be more than happy to take them.

This is wonderful news. I have been fighting for my 17 year old son’s freedom who was convicted to 41 years for robbery. It was his first offense.

Thanks to you all working for the Innocence Project for coming out last night in such bad weather. It was really a pleasure to be in the presence of such wonderful and caring people. I have been trying to find help for my son over the last 3 years and I had exhausted all of my resources. You are GOD sent. I had the opportunity to meet and hear about Mike’s life changing experiences and how he has overcome some of his life’s obsticles. I wish him much success. Thank you Innocence Project in advance for all that you will do and have done. God Bless you all and I will keep all in prayer. Thanks again for all the support.
