Mr. John Huffington was granted a full pardon of all charges on January 13, 2023. While acknowledging that money can never truly compensate for the time he lost, Comptroller Lierman voted to award $2.99 million to Mr. Huffington. A significant step towards justice and closure.
After spending more than 30 years in prison — including time on death row — for murders he did not commit, John Huffington finally received an apology Wednesday, as well as nearly $3 million in compensation from the state. https://t.co/4AGf2gE0GY
