He was a high school football star who was recruited by USC, but who was accused of rape and, at the (bad) advice of his attorney, pleaded no contest to avoid a 41 year prison term. Now, after he spent five years in jail and five years with an electronic monitoring device, it turns out that the accuser lied, and after the accused friended her on Facebook and got her on tape admitting that she'd lied and wouldn't tell the cops only because her mother won a civil suit against the school for the incident, he's been exonerated. But who compensates him for being wrongfully convicted? Can he ever make up for lost time? How many other cases are like this and never end in exoneration because nobody even inadvertently confesses?
