DESCRIPTION:This year’s award will be presented to Fredric N. Tulsky, lead reporter 
 for the 2006 San Jose Mercury News series “Tainted Trials, Stolen 
 Justice.” \n\nThe "Tainted Trials" series not only resulted in an 
 important and widespread reevaluation of judicial and prosecu-torial 
 practices in our area, resulting in increased attention to defendant's 
 rights at many levels, but it has also resulted in the overturn of 
 convictions or release from custody of six exonerated defendants during the 
 past year.\n\nAs part of the Santa Clara Valley ACLU’s honoree 
 presentation, Kathleen M. “Cookie” Ridolfi, Professor of Law at Santa 
 Clara University, will give a keynote presentation on “Wrongful 
 Convictions: Causes & Reforms.” Cookie directs the Northern California 
 Innocence Project and co-chairs The Innocence Network. A recognized expert 
 on criminal due process and defendant rights, Ridolfi will put Rick 
 Tulsky’s findings in a broader context and discuss how the public can 
 work for further reforms.\n\n
