I do not know what you mean by "anyone." Are you talking about lawyers or judges? There is a process involved in dealing with "newly discovered evidence." If you were convicted of a crime and you have new evidence that suggests or, as you say, "prove" that you are innocent, you should consult with an attorney experienced in criminal defense and post-conviction relief matters. Many attorneys offer a free consultation. But if you want a private attorney to do more than meet with you in hopes of getting your conviction overturned, you should be prepared to hire that attorney. I hope that this helps you. Good luck.

You need to consult with a criminal defense attorney in your area immediately, bring in the evidence and explain the circumstances. then you will get some advice on whether or not your new evidence is enough to overturn the conviction. it is not an automatic process.
If you have documents which prove you are not guilty you should turn them over to your attorney who should know what to do with them. If you do not have an attorney you should secure one.
Talk to a Criminal Defense attorney that practice in the county where you were convicted. It is very important that you do this as soon as possible, because there are deadlines for bring newly discovered evidence before a court. An attorney will be able to tell you the direction you will have to take to get the documents before the correct court. It is not easy getting a conviction overturned, it takes time, patience, perseverance and a skillful attorney. Contact an attorney.
