How Junk Science Convicts Innocent Women (Valena Beety)

What happens when who you are becomes the evidence against you? Valena Beety says that three-quarters of exonerated women were convicted of crimes that never happened, and that the same machinery now targets pregnant women, mothers, and queer families. Valena digs into junk science, false confessions, the "bad woman" trial, and the uncomfortable question of who gets to be considered a worthy innocent.
