Exonerated man reaches $7 million settlement after 48 years in prison
Briefly

According to the resolution passed by the council, Edmond agreed to the settlement without admitting liability. Oklahoma City officials declined to comment on the case, citing pending litigation.
Elizabeth Wang, Simmons's attorney, said in a statement, "Mr. Simmons spent a tragic amount of time incarcerated for a crime he did not commit. Although he will never get that time back, this settlement... will allow him to move forward while also continuing to press his claims against the Oklahoma City defendants."
