At 22, Mr. Bermudez was wrongfully convicted based on police and prosecutorial misconduct and spent nearly two decades in prison. At the time of his arrest in 1991, he had just enrolled at Bronx Community College and never had the chance to pursue his academic dreams until exonerated in 2009.

Join us as Mr. Bermudez shares his remarkable story of resilience, perseverance, and hope. “Free Fernando!” offers an intimate look at the far-reaching reverberations of wrongful incarceration and its lifelong echoes of devastation.
