I don't disagree, but there's a question of where the money would come from... If it comes from the government/state really just means it would be tax dollars. If it comes from a prosecuting attorney personally, they wouldn't have the money to pay out...

Edit: After looking through all these replies, I think the money coming from tax dollars is the right solution. As one person said, the money coming from taxes would put more pressure on prosecutors to try to avoid this, etc.. On the other hand, it's not the prosecutors job to determine if someone is guilty or innocent...that's up to the jury/judge...the prosecutor is SUPPOSED to try to do the best job possible. I don't know enough about it to know if a prosecutor feels that a suspect is innocent if they can request a different case or what, but I imagine it's a weird situation to be in a lot of the time.

If there were one thing you could change about the timeframe what would it be? Like...is there a common thing that you think "Oh shit, it's been two weeks and we just found X out. If only we could go back to the time of the crime and check on Y" what would it be?
