Guilty of Being Innocent

Britain’s Labor Home Secretary is suing people wrongfully imprisoned for crimes they did not commit to pay for the costs of their incarceration.
Diana Hsieh comments:

John McManus of the Scottish Miscarriage of Justice Organisation put his finger on the issue in saying that the government seems “to want to punish people for having the audacity to be innocent.” Well, perhaps that’s no surprise, given that they also want to punish people for the audacity of defending themselves against criminals.
