Our state law does allow wrongfully convicted persons to sue the state for damages. They don't get much, it's in the six-figure range, but it's better than nothing.

Hopefully, he used his time in prison to get an education, improve himself in some way and maybe he'll have a shot at not ending up there again.

I wonder if there's any way under Florida law that he can go after that 17-year-old who is now 39 for ruining his life?
