    Clickbaity writing, but also kind of a softball. “Annoy” doesn’t really cover my emotional reaction to this.

    At the very least he should be getting 50 years of federal minimum wage equivalent that he could have earned if he weren’t wrongfully imprisoned. If we do this the simplest possible way, $7.25/hr x 40 hr/wk x 52 wk/yr x 50 yr, that would be $754,000.

    Still not compensation for having your life stolen.

      Plus some extra for ruining his life. To be somewhat fair it should be like at least triple that.

      I’m not sure I’d give up 50 years of my life even for a few million dollars…
