Keith Findley's primary areas of scholarship and expertise are in wrongful convictions, criminal law and procedure, law and forensic science, and appellate advocacy. This collection is a selection of briefs from his long career working to help those who were wrongly convicted.

The Innocence Project works to free the innocent, prevent wrongful convictions, and create fair, compassionate, and equitable systems of justice for everyone. Their mission is guided by science and grounded in anti-racism and aims to create a movement to reform the criminal justice system to prevent future injustices.
