Wrongly Locked Up Man For 25 Yrs Receives $10m As Compensation 2018/06/07 12:43:02leadership.ng A U.S. man who was found innocent after serving 25 years in prison was given 10 million U.S. dollars on Wednesday as compensation. The settlement set a record for the city of Philadelphia, in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania, where Anthony Wright, who was 20-years-old when the alleged crime occurred, was sentenced to life without parole for a 1991 rape and murder case. DNA evidence discovered later proved that Wright was innocent. Innocence Project, an activist group promoting DNA evidence in criminal investigations, said in a statement that Wright was the victim of poor investigation procedures by the police, who allegedly threatened to beat Wright if he wouldn’t sign a confession written by the police. The group said Wright now 44, is the 344th DNA exoneree in the nation. |

In the nearest future, the angel that sent me to Nigeria will surly take pity on me. He will hear my cries, He will tell God to bless my hustles and make me a multi billionaire. AMEN. |
