Andrew Malkinson relies on a foodbank and was homeless after he was wrongly jailed for 17 years.
Andrew Malkinson always maintained his innocence when he was wrongly locked up for 17 years A man who was wrongly jailed for 17 years says he relies on a foodbank to survive as he has not been paid any compensation. Andrew Malkinson was wrongly jailed for raping a woman while working as a security guard in Salford, Greater Manchester, in 2003. But he says he has not been paid a penny he is owed by the state after he was released in July last year.
He said previously he was ‘enraged’ after reports he may have his prison accommodation costs cut from the compensation when he eventually gets paid. ‘Nothing but barriers’ Previously talking to BBC Breakfast, Mr Malkinson said the state ‘have the power to do the right thing but they chose to take their time.’ Trying to access compensation he was ‘encountering nothing but barriers’ because of the law, he told the Guardian.
