Flutterby™! : Wrongful Conviction

Wrongfully convicted man freed with DNA evidence released from Colorado prison without even the $100 debit card usually given to parolees:

While he was in prison, he didn't receive any job-skills training because he had been sentenced to life without parole. He earned $12.80 a month sewing prison garments and doing laundry.

"I couldn't take computer classes or anything else to better myself, Dewey said. "Life without parole meant my 'out date' was 1,000 years in the future. They weren't going to teach me skills I could use on the outside."

There doesn't appear to be prosecutorial misconduct, so it doesn't look promising for him to get anything in civil suits...
