A man that served more than two decades in prison for a being accused of a murder that he did not commit is suing for $30 million in damages. I mean he can never get his life back but $30 million would sure be nice! Do you think he deserves the money?

Fernando Bermudez filed suit in Manhattan federal court against the city and the cops and prosecutors who put him away.
In 1992, Bermudez, then 22, was found guilty of fatally shooting 16-year-old Raymond Blount outside the Marc Ballroom in Union Square following a fight inside the club.
After 11 appeals, Bermudez’s conviction was tossed and the charges dismissed by a judge who said a key witness lied about him being the shooter.
