You obviously have no clue how the justice system works for you to make a statement like that. Did OJ get his legal fees paid back to him by California.

Furthermore, just because the DA brings charges against you, and you are lated aquitted, does not mean the charges were false. It means that he did not prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt.

Malicious prosecution is hard to charge and very very costly.

If you think it is okay for a person found to be innocent to be financially wiped out afterwards, then even if you understand how the legal system works, you are wrong.

It is the same as being found innocent in the eyes of the law, isn't it?

I'm not talking about malicious prosecution. That should have nothing to do with it. If you are found innocent and have incurred big legal bills to defend yourself, the state should pay you the cost of your attorney fees. The same as it is in civil matters under the English rule. Why should you be so damaged by the state's mistake?
