Honored to have given the quote for of this story by investigative journalist David Jackson, writing for Injustice Watch.

“There’s been a number of cases against innocent people brought by the special prosecutors,” said private investigator Bill Clutter, who helped clear four defendants wrongly accused of murder by the group.
“They’ve just been on the wrong side of justice,” he said.



Illinois’ Special Prosecution Unit has been responsible for dozens of questionable cases, while acting outside of public view and with little oversight.

CASE UPDATE ⚖️

For the first time, our founder Jeffrey Deskovic argued a case at the appellate level — standing up for Eliseo DeLeon, a man fighting to overturn a murder conviction built on the work of disgraced NYPD detectives.

The weight of that moment is hard to overstate. Sixteen years wrongfully imprisoned before his own exoneration, Jeffrey now stood before the Appellate Division, Second Department, fighting for someone else’s freedom.

The case centers on a 1995 Brooklyn killing and an investigation led by former detectives Louis Scarcella and Steven Chmil — whose documented misconduct has helped overturn more than a dozen convictions since 2013. Jeffrey argued the identification of DeLeon was tainted from the start, that the lineup and a disputed “confession” DeLeon denies making can’t be trusted, and that with no physical evidence and no video, this conviction cannot stand.

The case is now in the appellate court’s hands, and a decision is expected in the coming months.

We’ll share more as it develops.
