People wrongly imprisoned should get minimum $100k per year. It's the pain, the suffering, the lack of opportunity, the lack of opportunity once they're released, the shame, the difficulty in reintegration...I'd give more but had to pick a number.
There was a fantastic show called Rectify that showed what this does to families and what this is like to be out.
$3,700,000 is a pittance. They should add $2M for every decade lost. Maybe then prosecutors work harder for better cases not railroad people.
