One of those 109 exonerees is Christopher Scott, who was wrongfully convicted of murder. The state of Texas paid Scott more than $1 million as a sort of apology for stealing more than 12 years of liberty from him. The state will pay him another $4,900 a month for the rest of his life. The money has helped him buy a home and a car, and start a business. “That compensation probably made me the person I am today,” Scott said. Advertisement 👋 That's all for this evening!
