Lets get this guy some cash…. I think a good response to this verdict would be to lock the entire jury up in prison for the next 27 years. Then, after they are released, another jury can deny them any compensation. Keep in mind though the DNA evidence exonerates him and his buddy from fucking her, not killing her or aiding in her rape and murder.

A man who spent 27 years in prison before DNA exonerated him will not see a dime from the city.

A jury on Tuesday did not find in favor of any claims brought by Michael Evans in a suit against Chicago cops.

Evans accused officers of falsifying evidence, coaching witnesses and failing to disclose favorable evidence in the kidnapping, rape and murder of 9-year-old Lisa Cabassa in 1976. He sought about $60 million in all.

The Evans case could be viewed as a test case for wrongful conviction civil lawsuits brought against the city. Four other suits filed by pardoned Death Row inmates are pending in the Chicago courthouse.

Settlemen
t negotiations had been under way since last year.
