EVENT DETAILS
Join us as Ronald Cotton shares his story of Injustice and Redemption. The incredible story of Jennifer Thompson, a former Elon University student who was raped at knife-point, and Ronald Cotton, the man she identified as her attacker in the police lineup. The conviction of Mr. Cotton, who served eleven years in prison for a crime he did not commit, was largely based on faulty eyewitness identification procedures. Following his exoneration, Ms. Thompson and Mr. Cotton became friends and advocates for criminal justice reform.
