I feel for this man jed. I know being of African descent alone back in 1975 in the US
was enough for you to get thrown in jail (rell sad reality).
And what hurts the most about his entire situation is this:

"Man cleared of murder after 39 YEARS in jail gets just $2M payment"

And then to add insult to injury...

"Just yesterday an Illinois man who spent nearly 20 years in jail after being wrongly imprisoned for rape and murder received a $20million settlement, setting a new national record.
He received about a million dollars for each year spent behind bars. Jackson, in comparison, received about $51,000."

And just when yuh tink it done...
To add injury to injury he was awarded 2M but has only been paid 1M so far..
I'm willing to bet every cent I have that the Illinois man is not of African descent.

If God forbid you was to end up in jail tomorrow for a
murder yuh didn commit:

a. How long yuh tink yuh go stay? (Cuz murder charge = no bail)
b. How much yuh tink yuh might get at d end of it all?
c. How much u tink is a reasonable sum for wrongfully spending 20 years inside in T&T?

no amount of money could make up for the lost time, loose bunghole and mental anguish...one like me was going on a rampage with a semiautomatic rifle and going down in flames

I said it eloquently though

Yeah it's really something else eh. Life already so short. 39yrs in the slammer and to live everyday knowing you didn't do it :-?

And he seems so cool. He has to learn this new world. New roads, buildings, cars, technology, electronics, transport system. Wow.....

MG Man scenario sounds plausible. LoL.

imagine people who've been executed for crimes they did not commit :-/
In this dude's case tho, they say 'if you do the crime, you do the time', so maybe they should let him do a crime worthy of the sentence

Look at when he stepped out of the building a free man.

if it turned out that the person he allegedly killed was alive- and he decided to now kill them, under 'double jeopardy' law the police cyah do sheit because he already did the time :roll:
