A Maryland man will be paid nearly $3m, after he spent 32 years in prison – including a decade on death row – for two murders he didn’t commit.
The Maryland Board of Public Works on Wednesday approved the $2.9m in compensation for John Huffington, who was wrongly imprisoned for the 1981 “Memorial Day Murders,” in which Diane Becker was stabbed to death and her boyfriend Joseph Hudson was fatally shot in Harford County.
