So that's about 2.95M USD or 2.7M EUR, I wouldn't go to prison for 18 years for that amount of money that's for sure.
Went to prison at 24 and got his 4m nzd payout at 61. Fuuuck that what a failure of the justice system.
Not only was he wrongfully convicted, but the true killer apparently went free?
It should be 1mil per year, minimum.
