New York settles wrongful conviction suit for record $4.75 million

A New York man who spent 18 years in prison for a murder he did not commit has reached a $4.75 million wrongful conviction settlement with the state, his attorney said on Tuesday. A U.S. federal judge in 2009 found Fernando Bermudez was wrongly convicted of fatally shooting 16-year-old Raymond Blount during a fight in Manhattan's Greenwich Village neighborhood in 1991.
