520 _a"Ray Krone walked out of a state prison and into the Arizona sunshine in April, 10 years, three months and 9-1/2 days after his arrest for a murder that DNA tests later showed had been committed by another man. Krone got an apology from the prosecutor and $50, the usual exit payment to the state's convicts. He also got some bad news from his attorney: Despite the Phoenix prosecutor's admission that Krone was wrongly convicted, Arizona laws would make it nearly impossible for him to receive compensation from the state for the decade he lost in prison, including more than two years on death row." (USA TODAY) This article reveals exonerated prisoners are seldom paid for the time they have spent in prison "because of laws that encourage aggressive law enforcement by shielding cops and prosecutors from lawsuits.".
