They guy hardly "won"... He "lost" so much...
The state hardly "lost", the tax payers are the ones that give up that money. Agencies like this budget in lawsuit "losses".
I feel the individuals that made the decisions to violate his rights need to be held personally accountable and to take personal losses for such. I know if I made a decision that cost my company 88K based on me boldly overstepping my authority I'd at least lose my job, if not be held financially accountable.
When I see people getting fired and having to reimburse the taxpayers THEN I'll consider us on the right track.
