Tet, who spent over a decade in prison for crimes that they didn't commit, has been introduced to some amazing people doing amazing work. And i try to bring light to that work and shed light on people's, you know, cases and the issues that get people wrongly convicted. Those are all things that we all can totally understand and totally fix. It is absolutely within our power, and it is so worth it. Tet, hey, thanks. I mean, maybe this is just the part of my mind that studies human behavior for a living, that i feel like there are so many common threads in psychology that absolutely transcend the specifics of an experience.
Amanda Knox was just 20 years old when she was found guilty of a crime she did not commit — the murder of her roommate. Amanda spent four years in an Italian prison before she was finally exonerated and allowed to return to her life back home in the U.S. But she soon discovered that that life didn't exist anymore.
