Show Notes
In this gripping episode of Keeping It Real on Purpose, Edna White sits down with Jeffrey Deskovic, a man who turned one of the greatest injustices imaginable into a lifelong mission for reform. After being wrongfully convicted of murder and spending 16 years in prison, Jeffrey was exonerated by DNA evidence. Rather than letting the past define him, he used his "second chance" to graduate from law school and become a powerful advocate for the wrongfully accused.
As the founder of the Jeffrey Deskovic Foundation for Justice, he now works to prevent the same systemic failures that took his youth. His story is a masterclass in purpose-driven living, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of truth.
