Innocence Project Northwest Celebrates 10th Anniversary : The Innocence Project Northwest (IPNW) celebrated its 10th anniversary on October 11, 2007 with a special screening of "The Trials of Darryl Hunt", with Darryl Hunt, and his attorney Mark Rabil in attendance to discuss Darryl’s 19-year struggle for freedom.

Since 1997, the IPNW has represented prisoners in Washington with credible claims of actual innocence. Originally a volunteer organization, the IPNW is now a clinical law program at the University of Washington School of Law. The IPNW students, professors and volunteer lawyers have successfully challenged twelve convictions in just ten years.
