FILE - In this Oct. 13, 2017, file photo, Lamonte McIntyre, left, who was imprisoned for 23 years for a 1994 double murder in Kansas that he always said he didn't commit, walks out of a courthouse in Kansas City, Kan., with his mother, Rosie McIntyre, after Wyandotte County District Attorney Mark A. Dupree, Sr. dropped the charges. Kansas is fighting McIntyre's compensation claim for the years spent behind bars before a court vacated his convictions. McIntyre's case was one of three that helped prompt the state last year to allow the wrongfully convicted to seek compensation from it. (Tammy Ljungblad /The Kansas City Star via AP, File)
