Just wow - this is an incredible story of overcoming tremendously difficult and enduring circumstances, to finally find hope realised, and life given new purpose and inspiration.
Jeffrey Deskovic was wrongfully convicted of rape and murder at age 16, and spent 16 years in prison before getting exonerated due to new DNA evidence.
Imagine leaving life with your family as a teenager, going to maximum security prison for 16 years - life, then getting out at 32, without being given any resources or having any experience of how to live in the world as an adult.
This is a must-listen story of hope, triumph, and finding a way to use the hardship you have made it through, to turn back around, and hold your hand out to those who are still where you once were.
