REMSEN STREET — Jeffery Deskovic was tried and convicted for a murder and rape that he did not commit, even though DNA testing pointed to another man. It took 16 years for him and the Innocence Project in New York City to earn his freedom.
Now Deskovic is fighting to help others who have been wrongly convicted, bringing his fight to St. Francis College in Brooklyn Heights. The presentation is free and open to the public.
The two-hour presentation begins at 6 p.m. tonight at the Callahan Center, St. Francis College, 180 Remsen St., Brooklyn Heights.
