They don't give a rat's ass about positive facts. Oh, Hell no. They like to wallow around in dirty little rumors, like pigs.

I think I've seen way too many threads on this topic. Texans/Republicans cheer the fact that DNA tests are exonerating people Texas courts have convicted with "beyond a reasonable doubt", while everyone else rolls their eyes at the fact that Texas seems to have an alarmingly high number of false convictions. Couple this with the fact that Texas is a death-row factory, and it makes a lot of people uneasy.

It also makes for fireworks. Which is why I guess this thread keeps popping up.

USA, Texas and more.

$1.8 million is chump change compared to losing 23 years of your life. Still, it's good to see the morons in Texas didn't execute this innocent man like they've done to so many other innocent men.

"Sorry for ****ing you over for 23 years of your life, here is a couple mill."

Yeah that is totally awesome.

Also, every state does that, not just Texas.

I didn't say it was totally awesome, Lonestar. Why don't you try reading, too, before you run your mouth like these other jackasses? RE: Read your last line. Read up to where I said it was a terrible deal.

You only had three posts up to mine, Slowwhand, and one of them was your pointed at something other states do(for example, North Carolina) and crowing about it as if Texas was unique in it at it made up for hilarious miscarriages of justice.

By the way, you DIDN'T say it was a "terrible deal".

They don't give a rat's ass about positive facts. Oh, Hell no. They like to wallow around in dirty little rumors, like pigs. See? STFU, Oerdin. Go wonder where your state services went. In fact, you made a snarky comment when Oerdin had the audacity to comment that the money was a raw deal for losing 2 decades of your life.
