QUESTION OF THE DAY: Should Missouri’s wrongfully convicted be compensated?
Last week, Lamar Johnson's conviction was vacated, setting him free from a wrongful conviction.
However, it's unlikely the state will compensate Johnson for the years it took from his life as a free man, under current law.
A Senate committee on Monday will consider a bill that would create a compensation fund for the wrongfully convicted.
