    eh, you can’t take back 50 years of wrongful imprisonment either.

      You can’t take it back, but you can at least offer them generous compensation for the government fucking up their life and also clean the slate and expunge the record.

      You can’t do anything to compensate someone for a wrongfully carried out execution. I’d actually support the death sentence if we had a way to be absolutely certain we weren’t ever going to carry it out on someone wrongfully convicted, but that’s impossible.
