Justice On Trial

Justice On Trial

Justice On Trial is an advocacy organization for the wrongfully accused. Headquartered in Glenbrook, Nevada, Justice On Trial was formed in April 2002. The group is funded entirely through contributions. Justice On Trial is a non-profit organization that has assisted in the defense of wrongfully convicted and those who are awaiting trial but claim innocence. Most notably is the Mickey Thompson murder trial in Orange County. Justice On Trial selected and raised the funds to pay attorney Jeffrey Friedman who, after 17 months, 6 briefs, 3 oral arguments before the 3 Justice panel at the 4th District Court of Appeal, was successful in having the case dismissed on jurisdictional issues.

Justice On Trial, in conjunction with John Bradley Entertainment is the pre-production planning phase of a television series of the same name, set to air in 2007. Each episode will feature the story of a wrongfully convicted or accused person, how/why they were charged/convicted and present the evidence that points to innocence.

John J. Bradley has been the Managing Director of Justice On Trial since 2002.
