Amazing. Wish it could happen more. Supposedly 4% of the prison population is falsely incarcerated. The exonerated individuals serve on average about 14 years for a crime they didn't commit (because forensics advanced so rapidly), and most are POC. Also almost half of the states in the US don't compensate them for the error. I'm surprised people don't talk about it more.
