Pardon the Norfolk Four

Pardon the Norfolk Four

The Issue

The Norfolk Four spent between eight and 11 years in prison for a murder DNA proves another man committed. But while the four men aren't in prison today, they aren't free, either. They live as registered sex offenders, under the terms of a conditional pardon, and one of them wears an ankle bracelet so his parole officer can monitor him.

Urge Virginia officials to vacate the convictions of the Norfolk Four and finally clear their names after a decade of injustice.
