I DIDN'T DO IT

Innocent But "Proven" Guilty Investigation Discovery Profiles Those Wrongly Convicted In "I Didn't Do It!" "Law & Order" Star Chris Noth Narrates Stories of Our Flawed Justice System on Monday, November 12 at 9 E/P "We find the defendant guilty." Those five words have sent millions of Americans to prison. Although we'll never know for sure, some studies suggest that between 40,000 and 100,000 men and women are serving time for crimes they simply did not commit. And, even more, ominously, for every person who is wrongly convicted, the real criminal remains at large. On Monday, November 12 at 9 E/P, Investigation Discovery brings these stories of injustice to light in the premiere of the six-part series, I DIDN'T DO IT!. Narrated by Chris Noth, known for his work as a detective on Law & Order, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, and the District Attorney on The Good Wife, this new series on ID walks viewers through cases of mistaken identity, misinterpreted evidence, forced confessions and legal technicalities that sent innocent people to jail, and allow the guilty to roam free. I DIDN'T DO IT! follows those who fight for their freedom, and prove their own innocence by bringing the real perpetrators to justice. Not only do these systemic problems shatter the lives of those accused, but they wreak havoc on the witnesses, law-enforcement officers and attorneys in the system trying desperately to see that justice is served. Guilt-stricken to have played any part in sending the wrong person to prison, witnesses, detectives and prosecutors discuss the reasons they made these tragic mistakes, and how they've struggled to come to terms with what they've done.
