National Not Guilty Society.

The NNGS is providing 
Free memberships to those wishing to join the battle to right past wrongs while reforming the criminal justice system of tomorrow. Victims of the American criminal justice system are automatically enrolled and receive free lifetime memberships.

      OTHER PROJECTS
*Currently these organizations only assist those in custody with claims of innocence where DNA holds the answer to one being guilty or not guilty. As time passes one or two will consider a non-DNA case. It is hoped & prayed upon that the days of cherry picking and exclusion will come to an end. PROJECT: Not Guilty simply shines a brighter light on an historically ignored area.
