I know, but this talk of compensation is ridiculous. It was a mistake. I think he should appreciate the fact that they are doing their job and accept an apology. That's what I would do.

He was accused and arrested---he at least deserves a public apology if not more.

I agree about the apology Bonnie, but no compensation.

It was a justified mistake because of the fingerprints. I voted no. No apology because stuff like this is going to happen.

Absolutely not. It's a war on terror, and the fingerprint was a mistake. Nobody's perfect.

If you think like a lawyer, you use the opportunity for personal gain. He IS a lawyer.

He should not be compensated.

If we apologized to everyone that was falsely accused and compensated everyone for that we would be one broke and poor country.
