There's the problem this man was wrongly convicted. There's the problem he was sentenced to life in prison. There's the problem it took 44 years to correct. There's the problem that NC thinks $50,000 a year is a fine compensation for an innocent person imprisoned for a year. And there's the problem that they cap that at 15 years, so he got nothing for the other 29 years.
