Help us get rush DNA testing

Tax deductible
Mark Carver was convicted on March 21, 2011 for the murder of UNC-Charlotte student Irina Yarmolenko and sentenced to life in prison.  He has always maintained his innocence, and the North Carolina Center on Actual Innocence has been investigating his case since 2013.  After the Center filed a Motion for Appropriate Relief on his behalf, Mr. Carver was granted an evidentiary hearing, which is scheduled to begin on April 2, 2019.  The judge has recently granted our request for additional DNA testing.  In order to obtain the results in time for the hearing, we need your help in raising $5,000 for the fees necessary to rush the testing. We strongly believe in Mr. Carver's innocence, and we appreciate any contribution you can make!
