$2 million for 21 years
-
<p>as BSG alludes too, most seem to have a lot of sympathy for him...there is the odd comment saying $2mill is fair given he would never have earned $100k a year, but that doesn't take into account all the intangibles that were taken from him as well.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Are a fair few on social media who think he should be just paid a hefty salary as well as being mindful of those who will try to bleed him dry!</p> -

<p>I thought evidence had pretty much concluded Malcolm Rewa did it?</p>

<p> </p>
<p>That's what I can't understand - that Rewa had two trials and a jury couldn't come to a satisfactory conclusion, and that Pora had his conviction set aside.</p>

That whole case was a giant clusterfuck (multiple changing of 'confession', no DNA or physical evidence to support), and that it has taken this long to right the terrible wrong is appalling.

Not only should he be compensated for such an appalling miscarriage, what prospect does he have to earn a wage he can save and retire on in his remaining years?
