Jerry Miller
Speaking topics: DNA
On April 23, 2007, Jerry Miller was exonerated after spending more than 24 years wrongly incarcerated for a rape that he did not commit in Illinois. He was wrongly convicted in 1982 of a rape he did not commit in Chicago largely based on eyewitness misidentification. In 2005, the Innocence Project took on Mr. Miller’s case and conducted DNA testing, which implicated another man in the case.
Mr. Miller is the 200th person in the U.S. exonerated through DNA evidence.
