In Memoriam" The Life and Times of Darryl Hunt

At 19 years old, Darryl Hunt was arrested, charged, and convicted of a 1984 North Carolina murder he didn't commit. Although DNA results proved his innocence in 1994, it took another 10 years of legal appeals to exonerate him. In 2005, Hunt founded the Darryl Hunt Project for Freedom and Justice, a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating the public about criminal justice reform opportunities, advocating for the wrongfully convicted, and providing resources to support individuals who were recently released from prison.
