In this episode, we hear from Maria.

Maria’s father spent six years of a 12-year sentence in prison. However, that verdict, that conviction was eventually overturned by the courts and deemed to be unsafe. 

But the impact of that wrongful conviction extended far beyond him—it reshaped Maria’s life. This episode explores the profound ripple effects of miscarriages of justice—not just on the accused but on their families

At 28 years old, Ala was living with his family in Aden, Yemen, when he was forced to flee—for his safety and for the chance to build a new life.

Yemen, located at the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula, is bordered by Saudi Arabia, Oman, and has been described as a breathtaking coastline along the Arabian and Red Seas. Yet, since 2014, Yemen has been devastated by conflict.

Nine years of war has resulted in a major humanitarian crisis. Over 4 million Yemenis are internally displaced, 17 million face food insecurity, and millions - especially women and children - suffer from malnutrition.

This is Ala's story.
