What should be your compensation when a rogue judge bullies you into confessing to a crime you did not commit? A California man is about to find out:
A state agency has recommended that a former Buena Park man be paid $31,700 for spending 10 months in prison for a carjacking he did not commit.
On Wednesday, James Ochoa, 22, also reached a tentative $550,000 settlement of lawsuits he had filed against Buena Park, its Police Department and a dog handler involved in the investigation.
The judge should lose his job.
