The Innocence Project is privately funded the resources that they can bring to bear to free the wrongly convicted are limited. They are also hindered by prosecutors that fight tooth and nail to keep DNA evidence from being tested and admitted in an appeal. Keeping these facts in mind I think it's safe to assume that they have barely scratched the surface of a national tragedy.
