City Pays to Right Wrongful Convictions | Newark News
Description
A judge just ordered Paterson to pay $3.4 million to cover legal fees for wrongfully convicted individuals — people who spent years in prison for crimes they didn’t commit, thanks to evidence being withheld. This settlement isn’t just about money; it’s a painful reckoning with systemic failures, shattered trust, and the long road to justice for families torn apart. Now officials are pushing for sweeping reforms to prevent future miscarriages of justice and restore faith in the system.
