Juan Roberto Melendez-Colon, exonerated following 17 years on Floridaís death row, speaking at Fairhaven College on September 28, 2011.

Juan, a death row exoneree, shares his story which highlights the many problems that plague the death penalty system, including its high risk and inevitability of being imposed on the innocent, its unfair application on the basis of race and ethnicity and its almost exclusive imposition on our most vulnerable members of societyóthe poor.
