Abstract
-
Much is known about risk posed by releasees who are returned to society after having fulfilled their obligation. Additionally, a few qualitative studies have explored the negative effects of being wrongfully imprisoned. Social scientists know very little, by contrast, about the post-release behavior and risk posed by exonerees.;Drawing on prior research on the effects of incarceration, the effects of exoneration and risk posed by commutes, this study makes a unique contribution to the literature. This study is the first to examine post-exoneration offending and the risk exonerees pose.;The findings illustrate the need for additional research in this area and provide an understanding of the implications of being wrongfully convicted. Furthermore, findings can help inform policy and procedure.
