  <title>#593 Jason Flom with Jeffrey Deskovic</title>
  <description>Jeffrey Deskovic’s first Wrongful Conviction episode was originally published in 2017, and his story is one we’ve returned to many times over the years — not only because of the 16 years he lost in prison for a murder he didn’t commit, but because of what he chose to do with his life after he was finally exonerated.

Jeffrey’s story also has an extraordinary connection to two cases we’ve recently revisited on this show: Andrew Krivak and Anthony DiPippo. The same polygraph operator who helped extract a false confession from Jeffrey when he was just 16 years old was later involved in the interrogation that produced Andy Krivak’s false confession. And years later, Jeffrey and the Deskovic Foundation (https://www.deskovicfoundation.org/) helped fight to free Andy — Jeffrey even put up his own home as collateral for Andy’s bail.

If you’ve been listening to Bone Valley: The Devil’s Quarry (https://lavaforgood.com/podcast/se0-introducing-bone-valley-season-6-the-devils-quarry-ii/) , Jeffrey’s story provides important context for the cases of Anthony DiPippo and Andy Krivak — and for how wrongful convictions like these happen in the first place.

Also, be sure to check out 16 Years (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lg63wHH8kio) , a film by Jia Rizvi about Jeffrey’s wrongful conviction and the work he’s done since.
