Protesters gathered at the Brown County Courthouse today to raise awareness for six men they believe were wrongfully convicted.

On this day in 1992, six local paper mill workers were convicted for the murder of their co-worker, Tom Monfils. 

The son of one of the convicted men said that "today is just about marking the day" and "letting people know that guys are still in prison for something they didn't do."

The annual march for justice began in 2010. 

One of the convicted men, Keith Kutska, has a request for a new trial pending before the state appeals court.
