Under state law, Charles Jackson is entitled to $56,752.36 for each year he wrongfully spent in prison.
COLUMBUS, Ohio – State officials have approved a six-figure payment to a Cleveland man who spent 28 years in prison for a murder a judge found he didn’t commit.
The amount is half of what Jackson eventually is likely to get, according to Anderson Renick, clerk for the Ohio Court of Claims. He had been released from prison in Nov. 2018, when Sutula ordered a re-trial and Jackson was released from custody for the first time since his 1991 arrest for murder at an Othello Avenue apartment building in Cleveland.
