Uncover ‘Corruption in the System,’ revealing how systemic failures and unethical practices undermine justice and integrity.
Corruption in the System: The Human Cost of Wrongful Convictions
Systemic corruption (or endemic corruption) refers to corruption that arises primarily due to the weaknesses inherent in an organization or process. It contrasts with corruption caused by individual officials or agents acting corruptly within the system.
The stories of wrongful convictions are not just tales of miscarriages of justice, but heart-wrenching accounts of lives shattered by a system that failed them. In the following videos, we explore the enduring struggle of those who endured the worst corruption in the system, including Isaiah Andrews, who spent 45 years in prison for a crime he did not commit, and the lives of other wrongfully convicted individuals. These cases highlight the failure of justice, the human toll of systemic corruption, and the long road to vindication.
Watch these powerful accounts of resilience and justice, and witness how the system’s failures are uncovered, piece by piece.
CORRUPTIE IN HET SYSTEEM: DE MENSELIJKE TOL VAN ONTERECHTE VEROORDELINGEN
Systemische corruptie (of endemische corruptie) is corruptie die voornamelijk te wijten is aan de zwakheden van een organisatie of proces. Het kan worden vergeleken met individuele functionarissen of agenten die corrupt handelen binnen het systeem.
De verhalen van onterechte veroordelingen zijn niet slechts gevallen van gerechtelijke fouten, maar hartverscheurende verhalen van levens die werden verwoest door een systeem dat hen in de steek liet. In de volgende video’s ontdekken we de voortdurende strijd van degenen die de ergste vormen van corruptie in het systeem hebben moeten doorstaan, waaronder Isaiah Andrews, die 45 jaar in de gevangenis zat voor een misdaad die hij niet had begaan, en de levens van andere onterecht veroordeelden. Deze zaken benadrukken het falen van de rechtstaat, de menselijke tol van systemische corruptie en de lange weg naar gerechtigheid.
Bekijk deze krachtige getuigenissen van veerkracht en gerechtigheid, en zie hoe de mislukkingen van het systeem stukje bij beetje aan het licht worden gebracht.

2 Isaiah Andrews Found Not Guilty After Spending 45 Years in Ohio Prison
2 nov 2021
Isaiah Andrews is now a free man after spending 45 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit.
The 83-year-old was found guilty of murdering his wife back in 1974 and sentenced to life in prison. He spent nearly five decades there, until the Ohio Innocence Project took his case. With their help, Andrews got a new trial and last week a new jury found him not guilty, even though almost all the original witnesses have long since passed away.
Brian Howe, staff attorney for the Ohio Innocence Project, joins Yodit Tewolde on “Making the Case” to discuss Andrews’ long road to freedom.
