It seems every time I read these stories they always get screwed over by a woman, and nothing usually happens to said woman. Just a casual observation in which I'm probably wrong.

Holy Christ on crack.
You know the worst part of this? The guy is going to get one hell of a payout, and it's not going to cost the Judge, jury, cops, or prosecutor that sent him to prison a single dime. But the rest of us taxpayers are going to be screwed out of several million dollars. Half of which will probably go to his lawyer. 
Best court system in the world... But it still fucks up more often than we'd like to admit. |

Police corruption.
And prosecutors' review produced a hotel receipt that Fleming paid in Florida about five hours before the shooting — a document that police had evidently had since they found in Fleming's pocket on arresting him, Mayol and Koss said. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/04/08/1989-nyc-murder/7467337/ |

Actually, those damages are usually paid from an insurance policy, but the taxpayers do foot the bill for the premiums. |

In before "he wouldn't have been suspected if he wasn't probably guilty of something else".
Prosecutor and cops involved should face the most brutal, painful 25 years of hard labor possible, and every last one of their possessions should be sold off to recoup as much as possible of the cost of whatever this guy gets in a very deserved settlement. |

Being in LE myself, that's a shitty story and it would appear that guy shouldn't have spent 25 years in prison. At very least the city needs to pay him a metric shit ton of money.

Personally, I might just find it within myself to have a serious lapse in judgement if I were on his jury in the subsequent trial. |

So much WTF in that story. How do you lose an appeal when your only "eyewitness" recants AND you have proof that you were literally across the country at the time of the murder? I would most definitely hunt down that psycho bitch that lied in court to put me in prison.
