23x$35k= $805,000 to keep him in prison for 23 years
23x$80k= $1,840,000 for wrongful imprisonment
$40-$50k/year for the rest of his life say another 40 years
40x$50k= $2,000,000

That one dude is costing tax payers $4,645,000.

What are you thoughts on the payout for wrongful imprisonment?

Seems that $80k/year locked up is a little steep, but I guess when you think about the shit he had to go through/miss, the undoubted issues with it, and the public probably knowing about it...seems fair for the fuck up.

They took 23 years of his life. End of story.
