Absolutely absurd. To give a man 115k for 23 YEARS of the most integral point in a persons life ripped away from them. That should be the amount he gets per year he was wrongfully convicted. Not being able to see your loved ones passing or spend time growing yourself as a person, 20 is when you BEGIN life basically. Thanks so much vox for this amazing video, it's amazing quality

So the actual murderer deserves no sympathy, but I love how at the end they try to act like he’s the one who locked up an innocent man. Criminals aren’t responsible for the misdeeds of the justice system, and pawning off blame onto him rather than owning the problems created by our system and the people involved in that prosecution is so irresponsible. That man I guilty of killing a woman, he is not guilty of locking up an innocent man for 18 years. THAT is a crime committed by our justice system.

Stinson won the case in 2019 and was awarded 7.5 million dollars by Milwaukee
@superfluous85
Wow, where the actual murderer is sorry...but not the dentist and prosecutors who put false evidence in front of the judge in the first place! wow...
@bumblingberry
The actual murderer is more sorry than the "experts", kind of remarkable. :chillwcat:
@MaydayKeeper
Update on Robert Stinson: "Robert Lee Stinson, 54, agreed to settle his claims against the city and one of its former police detectives for an initial payment of $3.5 million in August and $4 million in January, the resolution states" He settled the case with $7.5 Million

I admire vox’s editing team. Good thing it doesn’t require YouTube Premium.
@bonusduckmann9997
Just imagine spending 2 whole decades behind bars, accused of some absolute jibber jabber mumbo jumbo nonsense youve never even heard of, getting exonerated at last but getting no other formal compensation than 115k. That is just so enraging it boils my blood
@thermitebanana
I was just listening to this until the end when I started watching. I was thinking "how could they send Stinson to jail on that flimsy evidence?" Then I saw what he looked like and I thought, "yeah, that explains a lot"
@kagomekirari25
So are we not gonna acknowledge that Dr. Johnson’s doggedness in getting Stinson committed and general incompetence could’ve been plain and simple racism
@Steven178p
Why can I clearly tell that the judge that convicted him does not feel bad for her actions..
@CuriosityCulture
How is it possible such a high quality video is free on YouTube? Just insane.
@seoeomii
After the lawsuit in 2019, he was paid $7.5 million in compensation by Milwaukee. I'm glad he got what he was owed, but I am still saddened by the fact that he will never get all those years of his life back.
@mayadelaneys
Do y'all think the CSI and other forensic science shows might be giving these "experts" way more credibility in real life than they deserve?
@Werrito
“I’m just grateful that we don’t have a death penalty” smh. if only the studies were done.
@user-rj4vr2sc2d
There's a lot of infuriating things about this story, but I think what infuriates me the most is that he wrote to the Innocence Project in 2003, but still wasn't released until 2009.
@NateandNoahTryLife
Now in a new bingeworthy format! I hope you guys do more videos like this soon. Great job Joss and crew.
@blesyl67
Vox content is something we need but dont deserve . This is way too good ! Keep up the good work
@DieNextInLINE
The compilation that showed all those points in history all while Robert Lee Stinson sat behind bars really should make it sink in. What an amazing way to succinctly convey how much was taken from Robert.
