Jonathan Fleming, 51, did nearly 25 years for a 1989 murder in New York City that he did not commit. He was in Disney World on a family trip<\/a> at the time. Now, according to his attorney, he plans to sue the city for $162 million. According to an early May Guardian article<\/a>, Fleming was released with $93. He \"doesn’t have a permanent place to live, a job or a clear path forward. The state of New York did not compensate him for his wrongful conviction…\". \u00a0An Indiegogo campaign<\/a>, since closed, has raised $50,000.<\/p>\n
