26: WRONGFUL CONVICTION
Manage episode 350381807 series 3317864
Alfred Dreyfus. In this true crime world we hear terms like “Miranda rights” or “Amber Alert” or a “Dreyfus case”. These names come from true life situations and as we invoke their names, we should hear their stories. Here is the story of Alfred Dreyfus, who endured anti-Semitism and a wrongful conviction. He was later exonerated, but not before his whole life was destroyed.
