The Missouri Legislature recently passed a measure providing up to $36,000 a year for individuals falsely accused and imprisoned.

Lessee - 23 years, 36,000 per year...hmmm, does the city have $828,000.00?

Maybe Hizzoner could give up a couple months of kickbacks and pay this off pretty quick.

Wonder if that's gonna be tax-free?

I'll bet the nephew won't get any of it.

Not quite....somewhere between $200,000 and about $500,000 will go to the Lawyer with a contingency fee of 25% to 60%.

And the taxpayers will pick up the bill....

That one of three cigarettes did NOT have his DNA, and two DID have his DNA somehow seems not to exonerate him at all, in my opinion.

Did I miss something in the article?
