Wrongfully Convicted Man Sued for Back Child Support
As one of the commenters on this story suggested, Dwayne Dail ought to be nicknamed "Lucky."
In summary: a man is wrongfully convicted of raping a child. After twenty years in prison, he is finally exonerated and released. For those twenty long years, he's given a paltry $360,000 in compensation. He moves to Florida. His now-adult son moves to live with him.
What happens next? The mother of his now-adult son (who now lives with him, I might add) sues him for back child support for all of the years he was unjustly jailed.
Not only that, but she asks the court to order Mr. Dail to pay for her to sue him.
