www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. — A local district attorney’s office is launching its own squad to look into possible past wrongful convictions.
While it’s normally outside groups digging hard into old cases looking for mistakes, the people who prosecute criminals in Gwinnett County say the time has come for their office to start taking a look.
It’s being called the Conviction Integrity Unit.
“Any ADA’s worst nightmare is to have someone who’s innocent convicted,” said Gwinnett County District Attorney Patsy Austin-Gatson.
Austin-Gatson said that’s why she’s launching the new unit.
Two senior assistant attorneys plus an investigator will look full time into past cases where an innocent person may have been locked up.
