Centurion

In 2024, Centurion freed its 71st innocent client, Jose Carrion, from prison in the Bronx, NY; Mr. Carrion spent 25 years in prison for a crime he did not commit. On August 1, he was released into the loving arms of his family and is working on rebuilding his life post-release, including marrying his high school sweetheart in December of 2024. We are currently working on behalf of 20 innocent individuals who remain wrongfully imprisoned.

Continuing our efforts to help the community we serve, identify and manage the PTSD they experience as a result of their wrongful incarceration, Centurion hosted its 3rd Annual Exoneree Retreat in April of 2024. We gathered 21 freed clients to spend 3 days in Princeton, NJ to work with practitioners in a variety of modalities that are proven to help people manage PTSD. We look forward to our 4th Annual Retreat in April of this year.

Finally, Centurion Founder Jim McCloskey, and Board Member John Grisham released their NY Times best selling book, Framed, highlighting 10 stories of wrongful conviction, and shining a much needed light on the crisis of wrongful conviction across the country.
