This episode dives into the concept of conviction integrity, the principle that prosecutions that are obtained through improper methods should be exposed and amended to correct injustice. Of course, in Montana, where prosecutions are pursued against guilty and innocent alike with equal fervor, it is of little surprise that there is neither conviction integrity, nor any independent agency seeking to enforce it. In 67 offices around the country, Conviction Integrity Units have been established, and at least in some of these offices, genuine work of overturning false convictions, freeing innocents whose lives had been destroyed – but this is 67 out of thousands of individual offices, and none of which are actually within the state of Montana. After all, when government officials are knowingly corrupt, why would they want an agency looking into the integrity of their most powerful tool of oppression?
In this episode, I discuss an initiative by the Montana State Council and Forum on Judicial Accountability, which can be found here: https://www.mtscoja.org/Docs/CIU.html
