A man from Point Fortin, who spent al­most three decades in prison for mur­der­ing a woman, has lost his case seek­ing com­pen­sa­tion for not be­ing re­leased soon­er.

De­liv­er­ing a judg­ment yes­ter­day, High Court Judge Bet­sy-Ann Lam­bert-Pe­ter­son dis­missed Reshi Bis­soon’s law­suit seek­ing dam­ages for breach­es of his con­sti­tu­tion­al rights.
