The Idaho Innocence Project (IIP) is part of the Forensic Justice Project at Boise State University.
Our mission is to correct and prevent wrongful convictions in Idaho through case investigation, litigation, research, and education.
As part of the Forensic Justice Project (FJP) at Boise State University, we have helped free more than three-dozen wrongfully convicted prisoners in Idaho, other states, and around the world. We helped start innocence organizations in Montana, Oregon, Ireland and France, and work on DNA in cases with more than 30 other Innocence organizations. We train police, judges, lawyers, students, and members of the public through courses, professional development, and outreach activities. Dr. Hampikian’s DNA laboratory at Boise State University offers DNA analysis for cases accepted through both the IIP and FJP (cases outside of Idaho).
