Today Virginia General Assembly Votes to Provide Compensation to Exoneree Haynesworth

It’s been a good week for Shawn Armbrust and the Mid-Atlantic Innocence Project. After winning the Michael Hash case in federal habeas, they had a victory today in the General Assembly, which voted to give exoneree Thomas Haynesworth $800,000 in compensation for the 27 years he spent in prison for a rape he didn’t commit. Congrats to Thomas, Shawn and all involved!
