What he is alleging has not yet been proven true. He had his case over turned, yes. But he has yet to prove there was ill intent, or rigging of his trial. As of now, those are merely allegations. I can file a lawsuit against you for anything I dream up, but that doesn't mean I will win, or even that the case will be heard.
What makes you think they take pleasure in framing people? Why is it not possible they made a mistake, or acted out of other motives, aside from pleasure? Do you even logic, bro?
25 years of your life... 25 fucking years.... 25 of your prime years....
5 million per year. Is a year of my life worth 5million? At least that much.
Yeah, 125 million sounds reasonable to me.
He wont get 125 mill
You always start with big numbers.
Given that he lost 25 years of his life -- the prime of his life -- I'm tempted to say yes, he does deserve that 125 million. The thing is, who will be paying it? The question is, do we deserve to pay for that mistake?
125 million in that sense, is probably more than a little overkill. He deserves the money he would have made plus a significant figure more, so that he can get back on his feet and have a real chance to make it in the world he was wrongfully excluded from. Not to mention what he deserves for simply being wrongfully accused.
I've no idea what that fund would be, but I doubt it would be close to 125 million.
PS: The only context on this post I know is that someone was wrongfully imprisoned for 25 years. I haven't taken time to research this yet, and once I have, my opinion may adjust.

Hey, I'd be okay with this.

They sue for an exorbitant amount so the 2-5% out of court settlement is a reasonable amount. Lawyer will take 1/3 - 1/2. Then the government will take another 1/3 or so in taxes.
Who do you people is going to pay for this?

I don't know the actual monetary value of 25 years wrongly imprisoned, but the guy sure as shit has the right to sue for as much as he can get.
