I live in Gage county about 7 miles from Beatrice, personally I think 28 million divided by 6 people who spent in excess of 20 years in prison each for a crime they didnt commit isn’t really enough. The county probably spent 5 million in legal fees fighting this.

Reading the background on Wiki, it sounds as if the prosecutor was the dishonest one and found a forensic pathologist from Oklahoma to testify, based on her false evidence. The state's own forensic pathologist was not called to testify (her analysis showed none of the six matched body fluids from the victim).
The false confessions were obtained with the threat of the death penalty.

At least two wind companies are looking at Gage County for wind farms right now... and not surprisingly, they’re being VERY cooperative, hoping for some solid tax revenues from it.
