Absolute rubbish!!! angry Spending that amount of years in prison doesn't mean sleeping and eating all day. What if he was sexually harrased there? Its very common. This can never happen to a white person. All those racist fuuls! angry

I concur with you.

Ah...dats nice to hear...he is finally going to be rich after long tym of suffering...
Rich you say? He might have made more than that or less than that in the 40 years, can the 1 million dollars compensate for no sex, no marriage, no children for 40 years?

Bullsheet! Just one million dollars for forty years? The compensation is very shabby. Forty years of his youthful life was taken for crying out loud! I'm pissed. angry

He could have become a major star, have kids and so on. He could have been killed by hardened criminals in jail.

Less than $5 to 10 million is rubbish. Police brutality victims get far more.

Not concerned about the money I'm just concerned about the pain and emotional torture this man went through every day knowing he didn't commit the crime he is serving.

Life is unfair and if the witness had died the case is closed forever.

No amount of money can replace the wasted years.

Oga o. 40 years is a lot. Long before I was even born. embarassed

And I already feel like I've lived for 100 years. undecided
His jail time was a stark reminder of the embers of slavery and the championing of racism.

He should take the money and go in peace and ensure raises better children that won't fall into the same problems in the future.

With that money, hecould go to school, get the best education and invest in a business that will take care of him and his children (if he will have any).

Will that buy back the 40 wasted years?
