“ok I’m not wanting to see people wrongly convicted but i don’t see why that is worth 13 million$”
After you spend eight years in prison for something the police knew you didn’t do then get back to me on what you think is a fair settlement.
My take.
It wouldn’t be enough if it was me that got put away. Not with a “1” in front and a “0” afterward. Personally I wouldn’t be happy with anything short of breaking each of those badged thugs on the wheel.
Let the cops finish his sentence for him. As a cost saving measure we can just put then in general pop.
After you spend eight years in prison wondering if you will ever get out alive for something the police knew you didn’t do, then get back to me on what you think is a fair settlement.Sorry...that’s BS. Should the cops who did this go to prison? Absolutely! Should the guy have gotten *some* restitution for what happened? Absolutely! Should he have gotten $13 million?

I do agree that it’s a lot of money - but it’s a large imposition, too. You might say, “I’ll gladly go to prison for 8 years for that kind of money,” but that leaves out the fact that you expect to be out, and rich, after 8 years. This guy didn’t have that luxury.
