Based on stories from the Innocence Network, a worldwide organization dedicated to exonerating the wrongfully convicted, this four-part series explores the investigations that unjustly led individuals to prison, the battles to revisit their cases, new investigations and the human cost: the emotional impact experienced by those convicted and their families.

2. The Lewis Jim Fogle Case: Having already served 34 years for murder and sexual assault convictions, a man has a chance at freedom with DNA testing.
3. The Alan Newton Case
Sentenced to 40 years in prison, a man starts studying law to decipher his file and prove his innocence.
4. The George Toca AKA "Chicken" Case
New Orleans, 1984. A 17-year-old is sentenced to life in prison for his friend's accidental shooting death.
