The Alliance to Protect Kalief’s Law, a coalition of exonerees, impacted New Yorkers, public defenders, and advocates, held an advocacy day in Albany urging lawmakers to reject Governor Hochul’s proposal to gut New York’s discovery laws. “Do not be misled. This proposal would return New York to the days of the ‘Blindfold Law,’ rife with wrongful convictions and injustice as people suffered in jail in the dark about evidence in their cases." said Lisa Schreibersdorf, Executive Director of Brooklyn Defender Services.
