Derrick Hamilton

Baz Dreisinger, Mariame Kaba and Derrick Hamilton join us for a panel discussion about the future of mass incarceration, private prisons and prison and bail reform in the U.S.

"New Yorker" staff writer Jennifer Gonnerman profiles Derrick Hamilton, who spent almost 21 years in prison for a murder he did not commit.

The Brooklyn DA is reviewing 50 cases that may have involved coached witnesses, coerced confessions, and other abuses of justice. Lonnie Soury, president of the advocacy organization FalseConfessions.org, talks about the investigation and the allegations against a Brooklyn detective, and Derrick Hamilton, who served 21 years in prison for murder, discusses his efforts to prove that he was set up by the detective whose cases are now under investigation.
