DNA Frees Convicted Murderer

so basically i opened up AIM tonight and this is the headline was DNA Frees Convicted Murderer. after reading the article i noticed that they didn't ask the falsely convicted man how he is feeling or what the government does to try to remedy its false accusation....i mean in this case this guy has been in jail for 21 years and convicted of murder and rape. i understand that the state has to use the best technology it has to give justice to the family of the victim and to get him off the streets to prevent a crime like this from happening to another innocent person but MAN what an awful thing to make a mistake on.

i mean what do you think? is it possible for the government to apologize enough? how do you get 21 years of your life back - you can't! ugh this is just gut wrenching to me!

FYI...the article can be found here.
