Nearly three months after the city agreed on the settlement, a federal judge has signed off on $41 million to be given to the five men who, as teens, were wrongfully convicted of raping a jogger in Central Park.

So what is the punishment for the jurors?
It was not the CITY that convicted these people it was a jury?

This was my very first thought as well. How is it that elected (and unelected) Government officials are not held personally responsible? I mean we should have a class action lawsuit against Lois Lerner... but... well... you know.
