Wrongful convictions occur when innocent defendants are found guilty at trial or plead guilty to crimes they did not commit in order to avoid the possibility of harsher punishment. Factors that lead to wrongful convictions include lack of a thorough investigation, a careless investigation, faulty forensic evidence and junk science, incorrect eyewitness identification, false confessions, prosecutorial misconduct, and false testimony from informants or jailhouse snitches.
