‘It’s Supposed To Be Innocent Until Proven Guilty,’ Says Innocence Project Board Member
Atif Rafay claims that he and his best friend, Sebastian Burns, were manipulated by authorities into falsely confessing to killing his parents and sister in 1994. This, in spite of testimony that they weren’t at the crime scene at the time murders took place and evidence that someone else may have killed Atif’s family. The two men, who were teenagers at the time of the killings, are currently serving multiple life sentences.
“It’s supposed to be innocent until proven guilty and beyond a reasonable doubt,” says Jason Flom, board member at the Innocence Project and host of the podcast Wrongful Conviction with Jason Flom. “There was overwhelming doubt from day one. There’s airtight alibis, there’s no physical evidence – and yet, they zeroed in on these kids.”
