A federal judge found the FBI responsible in July for framing the men for the slaying of Edward "Teddy" Deegan, a small-time thug who was shot in an alley in 1965.

Joseph Salvati, Peter Limone and the families of Henry Tameleo and Louis Greco sued the federal government for malicious prosecution, winning a nearly $102 million combined in a ruling from U.S. District Judge Nancy Gertner last July.

How sad. All these men were set up and convicted, despite being innocent. Two died and two spent nearly 30 years locked away due to FBI corruption. No amount of money will ever do them proper justice. Those agents, and anyone in on it, should be put away for life. Total scum.
