These stories feel like the biggest troll jobs ever. Ruin your life and then pay you for it.

I would rather be free and broke for 30+ years.

A million ain't shyt for 39 years

shyt is a straight up slap in the face. Couldn't be me. Let me ONLY get a milly after doing 40 years for a crime I did not commit, Ima use all that money and be on some Gerald Butler in Law Abiding Citizens type shyt.

In case you didn't read the rest of the story

In November, Jackson, 57, and Wiley Bridgeman, 60, were both exonerated in a 1975 murder after a key witness against them, who was 13 years old at the time, admitted in 2013 that he lied during his testimony.

Eddie Vernon, now 53, told a minister who visited him at a hospital in 2013 that he had never actually witnessed the crime. He said Cleveland police detectives coerced him into testifying that the men killed businessman Harry Franks on May 19, 1975.

Man, that's so goddamn insulting when you really get down to it. Only $25K a year for his pain, suffering, lost wages, mental toll... That's like them saying "it wasn't really that bad and it's not like you would have made more anyway"... Man that shyt got me sick. Across the board standard for false imprisonment should be $1M a year.

750k - 700k after taxes

One of them was 21 when he was locked up and the other was 18........in 1975. You can't even imagine the horrors these two faced inside. And if they were not built like that all the worst. I won't blame these two if they went on a rampage and sprayed somewhere up.
