He is convinced of Michael Dandridge’s innocence. Sean – one of the brilliant law students on the Innocence Project team. She seems manipulative and needy in equal measure.

She has read her mother’s diary and learns that the accused, Michael Dandridge, is responsible for her own father’s death and the brutal rape of her mother.

Hannah – a third year law student who lives with her mother in Orono, Maine. ![]()
