Wrongful conviction lawsuits typically allege investigative negligence or prosecutorial misconduct that led to the wrong person being convicted. Death row cases are especially notable because the consequences are irreversible. These suits are how exonerees get compensation and create financial incentives for police to conduct investigations more carefully.
